England 1956: When woman is murdered in the nearby market town of Pulminster, suspicion falls on Eleanor White and those close to her.
Soon after, an object that was presumed lost in Venice turns up raising the fear that an old enemy has reappeared. But that would be impossible - wouldn't it?

No laptops, mobile phones, selfies or social media. Just three paranormal murder mysteries for those cold winter evenings by the fireside with a nice drink. Or even for your sumer holiday relaxation in the sun with a refreshing cocktail - especially if you're in Venice.
