Reinstated Detective Sergeant Washington Poe is called back to Cumbria, where a body has turned up–very much alive! Elizabeth Keaton was believed to have been murdered by her narcissistic father, Michelin-starred celebrity chef Jared Keaton, six years ago, though her body was never found. But when she vanishes again soon after, Poe suspects the whole thing may have been staged by Jared to get out of prison and take revenge on him. There‘s just one problem: Elizabeth‘s DNA matches. Poe needs Tilly once more to uncover what really happened! M.W. Craven is definitely one of the best crime fiction writers I‘ve come across. I loved that the investigators had to rely on proper police work to catch the culprit–no chasing red herrings only to be saved by some lucky coincidence, like in many other books in the genre. Poe and Tilly‘s second case was even better than their first. Once again, I enjoyed their dynamic and how well they complement each other. The brilliant storyline and clever twists had me so invested I kept telling my family and friends what was happening. I mean–what other murder mystery starts with someone NOT being dead? And who knew truffles could play such a massive role in a book? A well-deserved 5-star read.🌟
