An original short story taken from the anthology Motives for Murder, by members of The Detection Club
From esteemed crime author Janet Laurence comes a tale about the danger of long-lost relations.
When Irene, enjoying a peaceful retirement in Bath in the house her father left her, opens the door to her twentysomething Australian cousin Rod, her life changes.
Rod comes to stay – and is helpful round the house and generally jovial – but does he have designs on Irene’s new wealth?
