BOOK 2: OUT COMES THE EVIL
A body is discovered in the well of a ruined manor. The victim was a widow who had lived quietly in Folly for the past ten years. Rumours abound about the men in her life. Alex is drawn into the investigation and a ruthless killer who has decided she knows too much.

BOOK 3: MELODY OF MURDER
Alex hears singing and finds herself drawn to the church. Suddenly the singing stops with a loud crash. Alex races in to find a girl sprawled on the floor, already dead. A sly and perverted killer is on the loose in the village. Can Alex stop them?

BOOK 4: LIES THAT BIND
When young Kyle stumbles on a body dumped in the woods, Alex is determined not to get involved. But Kyle helps out at her friend's vet clinic. To protect him, Alex withholds information from the police: a misstep that will have consequences.

BOOK 5: WHISPER THE DEAD
Would someone kill to stop the village being blighted by new homes? At a construction site, Alex is confronted by a trailer on fire. What the firemen find inside is far worse . . . Alex is drawn into a major murder case that reaches right to the heart of the community.

BOOK 6: TRAP LANE
Alex has always trusted Hugh, her bar manager. Until two women from his past turn up and he can barely contain his fury. When a body is found in a pond near his home, Hugh becomes the prime suspect.

MEET ALEX
People think Alex is the perfect girl-next-door, but she's made of sterner stuff than most. Divorced pub owner and graphic artist, she meets challenges head on, especially when she decides to stand up for justice. Alex is no stranger to trouble, never has been since she was a scrappy girl with no dad and a mum working around the clock.

THE VILLAGE
A view of Folly from The Hill is cause for a smile in any season. Let's try December, early on a cold morning. Snow covers frozen twigs that crackle beneath your feet. On a high point to the west stands ruined Tinley Tower, the folly the village was named for. Below, across the green with its frozen duck pond, honey-yellow cottages huddle. Thin smoke straggles from chimneys and lights shine through leaded windows. Idyllic. Deceptively so?
