After working with the bestselling crime writer for years, she?s intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus P?nd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan?s traditional formula has proved hugely successful. So successful that Susan must continue to put up with his troubling behavior if she wants to keep her job.Conway?s latest tale has Atticus P?nd investigating a murder at Pye Hall, a local manor house.
