Dressed to Kill

Nobody likes Mrs Pryce. Meddling, miserable and small-minded, she is the Scrooge of the square where she lives in Bath. Her neighbours are weary of her constant allegations – the latest being that someone is stealing her plants. When Joanna McKenzie, ex-policewoman turned private detective, is called to investigate, she finds she doesn't care for Mrs Pryce either – but a minor source of unpleasantness turns major when Mrs Pryce is battered to death. If this was not challenging enough, Joanna is forced to work alongside her former colleague and old flame, Inspector James Carrick. Heat begins to build on all fronts when a young red-headed nurse, mistaken for Joanna, winds up murdered, and the eccentric characters living in the square begin to show their true colours. Joanna and James must put their feelings on hold and unite to catch the killer before the killer finds them.
