HANGMAN’S ROW INQUIRY
The first book in the all-new
Ivy Beasley Mysteries
Ivy Beasley may have been moved to assisted living, but she has more interest in assisting her new partners in an amateur-sleuth business. She teams up with Gus, a mysterious newcomer who can’t resist a little excitement even as he strives to keep his past secret, and her own cousin, a widow with time on her hands and money in her purse. Together they’re determined to solve a local murder . . .
In one of the houses on Hangman’s Row, Gus’s elderly neighbor has been found with a bread knife sticking out of her chest. Local gossip has it that there was no love lost between the victim and her daughter, but Ivy and her fellow sleuths soon discover no shortage of suspects—or secrets—in the small English village of Barrington . . .
