Overview

"When the universally disliked Jasmine Horner is found drowned no one is sorry to see the back of her. In fact there are those who feel that after a lifetime of meddling in other people's business her comeuppance is long overdue." "An innocent conversation in the local pub leads the police to Alastair Branch - much to the consternation of his friend, John Cunningham. And when Alastair is arrested John decides to take matters into his own hands, enlisting several of his young kennel hands to gather information." "John's investigations gradually uncover a series of possible clues, including a cigar butt found near the body, a suspicious looking man witnessed near Mrs. Horner's house, some fake letters she typed under false names and the sinister disappearance of a pet rabbit..." "One thing is certain - Jasmine Horner had made one enemy too many in the district. And matters finally reach a crescendo when a chance discovery leads to a dramatic confrontation..."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
