England Expects by Sara Sheridan

Set during the summer heatwave of 1953, England Expects finds Mirabelle and Vesta investigating the seemingly unrelated murders of a racing journalist and a cleaning woman. Their searches lead them through Brighton Pavilion's crumbling passageways to the quad of a Cambridge college and finally into the shady underworld of Brighton freemasonry. And, while not on the murder trail, Vesta has to make some difficult decisions about her personal life.

'A classically arresting mystery.. With some formidable detective work as well as some particularly perilous moments, this is a first rate read' 

-- Sarah Broadhurst * Lovereading *

'Sheridan has turned out a well-paced adventure which neatly balances the case at hand with the personal lives of the characters'

* Herald *
