The Sunset Years of Agnes Sharp

One murder to solve and another to cover up. It'll be tricky, but the OAP residents of Sunset Hall are going to give it their best shot.

Sunset Hall is a house share for the old and unruly, led by Agnes Sharp. It's an eventful day when this group of idiosyncratic seniors gets a visit from the police to inform them of some shocking news. A body has been discovered next door. Everyone puts on a long face, but they are secretly relieved the body in question is not the one they're currently hiding in the shed (sorry, Lillith). It seems the answer to their little problem with Lillith may have fallen right into their lap. All they have to do is find out who murdered their neighbour, so they can pin Lillith's death on them, thus killing two old birds with one stone. To investigate, the group (not forgetting Hettie the tortoise) will venture into the not-so-idyllic village of Duck End and tangle with sinister bakers, broken stair lifts, inept criminals and their own dark secrets.

'A mystery like a gingerbread house, rich and warm and sweet and dark. Fans of Richard Osman's superannuated detectives, welcome to your new club.' - A. J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Window 'A collection of delightfully batty characters, a disdainful tortoise, a wonderful plot and a guaranteed smile on every page.' - Ian Moore, author of Death and Croissants 'A quirky and charming cosy mystery ... and it had the bonus addition of my favourite character, a tortoise named Hettie!' - Katy Watson, author of The Three Dahlias
