Out 3rd April - The Deathly Portent
|
The Deathly Portent Her charm and cajolery may fool the unwary. Unscrupulous and cunning, as dauntless as she is resolute, the incomparable Ottilia is as ruthless as the killer she is tracking in THE DEATHLY PORTENT: A violent murder has left the village of Witherley aghast. The locals are convinced that a witch doing the devil’s work is to blame—a young woman believed to have second sight. The new vicar, Aidan, taking up the cudgels in her defence, fears the witch hunt is escalating out of his control. But help is at hand. The bright and perceptive Ottilia is drawn to Witherley by an insatiable curiosity. Ottilia rapidly uncovers a raft of suspects with grudges against the dead man, one of whom is determined to incriminate the “witch.” And as foul play runs rampant, Ottilia must wade through the growing hysteria to unravel the tangle and point a finger at the one true menace.
