Due to a Death by Mary Kelly

Gripping, intelligent and affecting, Due to a Death was nominated for the Gold Dagger Award and showcases the author's versatility and willingness to push the boundaries of the mystery genre. This edition includes an introduction by CWA Diamond Dagger Award-winning author Martin Edwards.

A car speeds down a road between miles of marshes and estuary flats, its passenger a young woman named Agnes--hands bloodied, number with fear, her world turned upside down.

Meanwhile, the news of a girl found dead on the marsh is spreading round the local area, panic following in its wake. A masterpiece of suspense, Mary Kelly's 1962 novel follows Agnes as she casts her mind back through the past few days to find the links between her husband, his friends, a mysterious stranger new to the village, and a case of unexplained death.

Mary C. Kelly is a professor at Franklin Pierce University who specializes in modern Irish and American history. The Shamrock and the Lily: The New York Irish and the Creation of a Transnational Identity (Peter Lang Publishers, 2005) is her first book.
