Who is hiding behind a mask in Lemon Tree Bay? Clara’s yoga class is far from peaceful when the instructor, Emerald, is poisoned. The nature of her death and a series of revelations about her personal life raises gossip and conjecture throughout Lemon Tree Bay. Who could have murdered her, and why? Bright and bubbly Gigi, Clara's colleague at the hair salon, is plunged into worry when her boyfriend, Ollie, goes missing. In comforting her friend and assisting in the search, Clara finds herself digging into Ollie’s life, only to make a shocking discovery. Senior Constable Adam Billings needs a distraction from the heartbreak of seeing the love of his life with his arch-nemesis. Throwing himself into his work, he becomes convinced Emerald’s murder and Ollie’s vanishing act are linked, but will his investigations put him directly in the poisoner’s sights? As the town’s annual masked ball turns into a night of revelation, and with those nearest and dearest to Clara in the deepest peril, she resolves to unravel the mysterious happenings in her coastal hometown. Can she unmask the murderer, or will snooping cost her everything? The Perils of Poison is the third book in the Lemon Tree Bay Mysteries – a baffling, cosy, romantic series by award-winning author, Megan Mayfair.
