A Family Affair: A Novel of Intrigue and Murder in Pendle Witch Country (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781539768821)

In this second Bethany Gallagher detective novel, Gallagher has fled South Africa and has arrived in Britain, where she's trying to start a new life in a northern English town. However, negotiating the idiosyncrasies of British life - and sorting out her personal relationships - have to take a back seat when she's asked to find the missing daughter of fellow South African expats, Marelize and Tiaan Louw. An apparently simple missing person case quickly turns into a murder inquiry - followed by another missing person and another murder. Is the second murder simply a copycat, or are they somehow connected? How does the mysterious Peter Sharples fit into this puzzle? And what are the skeletons in the family cupboard that the Louws would prefer to keep hidden? Aided by the congenial and engaging D.S. Wainwright of the local CID, Gallagher gradually fits the pieces together to reach an unexpected conclusion. An intricate and enthralling novel of family intrigues and murder set in the mystical landscapes of Pendle Witch Country.
