When the newspapers turn up to cover Ruby Bright's 100th birthday, they find her seaside care home is a murder scene. Someone spirited Ruby away by wheelchair down to the water's edge on the idyllic north Norfolk coast, and strangled her. But why kill a harmless centenarian? As Detective Inspector Shaw and Detective Sergeant Valentine investigate, it's clear Ruby wasn't the first victim, and nor is she the last. All trails lead to the nearby port of Lynn, and the old Parkwood Springs estate, close to the docklands. There's only one way in and one way out of the estate - through the derelict Lister Tunnel. But what is the secret within.....?

Always enjoy Mr Kelly's novels and this one was no exception with the unusual premis of a 100 year old woman being taken from her carehome and murdered down by the sea, How it ties in with shoes being thrown over power lines and pilgrims travelling to the area is cleverly plotted but not so convoluted that it is hard to follow or seems totally implausible. Well done Mr. Kelly.

Taking to today's lunch time meet at Prezzo, Hinckley with two other bookcrossers.

Thank you.

Yes, very interesting match-up of cases. I always love a Jim Kelly.
