The Cuckoo's Child by Marjorie Eccles
Wainthorpe, in the year 1909, is a small town in the West Riding of Yorkshire, where the thriving Cross Ings wool mill is one of the most prosperous. Its respected owner is Ainsley Beaumont, whose family wealth derives from centuries in the woollen trade. Detective Inspector Charlie Womersley is convinced that the investigation of a body found floating in the mill dam will soon be over. But it soon becomes apparent that this is far from the case. At Farr Clough House, where the Beaumont family live, there are secrets which more than one person is determined to keep. Meanwhile, down in Wainthorpe, other people are also keeping their lips sealed, as Womersley discovers in his search for the truth.
Marjorie Eccles was born in Yorkshire, England and spent her childhood there and on the Northumbrian coast. She has written over a score of books, including the Gil Mayo mysteries which feature Superintendent Mayo and his assistant, Inspector Abigail Moon.
The series is set on the edge of the Black Country, where she lived for over thirty years. She is also a writer of short stories and her books have been translated into many languages and have been serialized in British and foreign magazines.
