Old Wounds by Nora Kelly
'Kelly is as stunning on the evocative geography of workplaces as she is at dry, educated repartee. A chilling intrigue' Sunday Times The rural campus of Stanford University, though situated within easy reach of New York City, seems too idyllic a setting for murder. So the discovery of a young female student's body on a lonely stretch of country road, her throat slashed by a brutal killer, comes as a shock to the community. And to none more so than historian Gillian Adams, who has only recently returned to the town where she grew up, having taken a year's sabbatical so that she might care for her aged mother. As the bizarre double life that the dead girl had been leading begins to unfold, with revelations of affairs and incriminating nude photographs, Gillian finds that more than one of her childhood friends -- and enemies -- is being sucked into the murder hunt. Can it be that one of them is the killer?
'A refreshing change from the high-intensity blood-letting of many modern mysteries' Susanna Yager, Sunday Telegraph 'It's wonderful to read a crime novel that treats its readers, and its characters, like real people' James Melville, Ham & High
