Description
Welcome to The Edge of the World Detective Agency
'Here we go again...'
Amateur sleuth Donna Nightshade should really be used to being accused of murder by now - after all, she's found herself the prime suspect in nearly every case she's investigated in the past year! - but when St. Ives sees not one, not two, but three suspicous deaths in quick succession, and Donna finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time for each one, she's forced to defend her good name once again.
Yet when she's faced with unfinished business - in the form of DS Joe Enys, assigned to stick to her side and oversee her investigation - she realises there are some interesting benefits to having a murderous reputation...
Book 3 in The Edge of the World Detective Agency series follows Donna 'Deadly' Nightshade - former florist turned private eye - in her bid to crack a new case amidst the dramatic cliffs and secret coves of Cornwall.

Reviews
Readers ADORE this mystery series:
'The sleeper book of the year... so much fun to read that you forget to even try and solve the case. And good luck solving it anyway, with twists within twists within twists'
'Set in beautiful Cornwall, the characters were quirky and slightly magical, the writing was good and the mystery was totally unpredictable. Well done to the author for writing an excellent cosy mystery whilst avoiding some of the normal characteristics of the genre.'
'Intelligently written with comedy, sarcasm, murder and peculiarity at its heart making for an entertaining and intriguing read'
'There aren't enough words to tell you how much I enjoyed this book. Odd. Funny. Engaging. Brilliant. I absolutely loved it. I am not often lost for words when trying to explain what makes a book special'
'I didn't put it down until I was finished... and slightly sleep deprived as a result... and I'm thrilled!'
'Kept me reading and put a smile on my face. And I can't ask more than that. A really promising debut'
'Reflects (exaggerates) the eccentricities of the British people, in particular the Cornish... the author brought wicked sarcasm and snark into her characters'
