Publisher's Synopsis
How does it feel to go to work as an agency carer on Monday morning, only to be accused of robbery and murder by coffee-time? Betty Reilly; incredibly clever, undervalued and overworked, has an absent husband and a demanding job. She finds herself suddenly embroiled in the complex and erratic lives of the comically and dangerously eccentric inhabitants of Eagle's Nest, Cornwall. Betty knows she didn't kill Lady Legeia, but the daughters, and their friend the Police Commissioner appear determined to pin the crime on her. Set against the backdrop of a community and a castle harbouring secrets, and the shadowy activity of a global mining company, our magnificent heroine Betty must use her wit,wiles and investigative skills to prove her innocence.
