Mum in the Middle by Jane Wenham-Jones

‘Fresh, funny and wise’ Katie Fforde ‘I love Jane’s writing!’ Jill Mansell ‘Feel-good’ Woman and Home Tess has downsized to a lively new town and is ready for “me” time.

Tess enlists the help of gruff newspaper editor Malcolm to get to the bottom of the mystery but when her ex-husband pays an unexpected visit and her mother stages a disappearance, Tess starts to feel her new-found freedom wearing just a little thin…
