The Indecent Death of a Madam
An Abbot Peter Mystery
by Simon Parke
Pub Date 21 Sep 2017
Description
The Stormhaven Etiquette Society, a secretive affair, unafraid to name and shame those who transgress.
Model Services, the town’s only brothel, a discreet but busy presence in Church Street.
Bybuckle Asylum, a desolate shell on the seafront that housed over seven hundred mental patients prior to ‘care in the community’.
What brings these three together is a cold-blooded execution that both shocks and confounds. For lying dead in the empty asylum, tied to an old metal bed frame, is a pillar of the establishment. Or is she?
Sleuthing couple DI Tamsin Shah and her remarkable cleric uncle join forces once again to solve a murder mystery that reveals dark secrets from Abbot Peter’s tempestuous student years.
‘Do we ever leave anything behind?’ he wonders as the killer swings the gun barrel towards him . . .
