'Willow is a beguiling heroine.' - Frances Fyfield, EVENING STANDARD. Dividing her time between her own romantic novels and her work at the Home Office, Willow King also takes on a commission to write the memoirs of famous novelist Gloria Grainger's life. As she interviews the dead woman's family and staff, her friends and her most bitter enemies, Willow concludes that the death was too convenient for at least one of them. As Willow herself becomes a target for the same hatred that seemed to surround Gloria, she needs all her usual luck, courage and intuition to unravel a particularly nasty murder.
