Writer Kate Ivory has new neighbours on either side of her terraced house. On one side lives Jeremy Wells, a diffident, charming Oxford academic. On the other live Laura and Edward Foster who are intent on enjoying every moment of their retirement. None of them seems likely to become embroiled in serious crime, nor to be its victim. But within a few weeks, Kate is answering questions by the police about a brutal murder on her own doorstep.

Good Read,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oxford Double (Paperback)
Veronica Stallwood is a writer who should be more well known in the U.S. than she is. Her books are hard to find at bookstores or the library so I resorted to buying as many of them as I could find on a recent trip to England. While not in the top tier of writers, she writes a good read. For those who like England in general and Oxford in particular, Veronica Stallwood should be on the book list.
