About This Item
Synopsis
It's high summer when Molly Pargeter drags her amiably bickering family to a rented Tuscan villa for the holidays. Molly is sure that the house is the perfect setting for their three-week getaway, but soon she becomes fascinated by the lives of the absent owners – and things start to go horribly wrong...With a cosy fluency of wit, Mortimer charms us into his urbane tangle of clues' Mail on Sunday.
