Product Description

Product Description

Two fatal cases of food poisoning at Framleigh House, the smart residential home where her mother Sylvia is staying, are treated by the authorities as accidental. To Melissa's consternation, Sylvia decides to do some detective work: Why do the once-married couple ignore one another in company but make a secret rendezvous in the grounds? Do the two gay actors fit into the puzzle? Can Sylvia trust the confidante whom she has roped into her 'investigation'? When another resident is taken ill Melissa starts to take her mother's concerns seriously and begins to investigate with the aid of local journalist Bruce Ingram and in so doing puts her own life in jeopardy.

3.0 out of 5 stars No laughing matter by Betty Rowlands, 7 Jan 2004
This review is from: No Laughing Matter (Paperback)
This was the fifth book I have read by Betty and it was upto her usual standard. I particuarly enjoyed the graphic details she narrated about the surrounding countryside, which enables you to picture the scene settings. After having made my usual guess as to who the culprit was going to be, I was completely wrong and as usual this book had a good twist to the tale, you will not be disappointed.
