Death in the Dunes, Inspector Ryga Mystery 4
Pauline Rowson
Works of: Fiction
t’s a bitterly cold day in March when Inspector Alun Ryga alights from the train on the Kent coast. Despite its name, Greatstone-on-Sea was far from great — no matter what any holiday poster advertized.
But Ryga’s not here for a holiday. He’s here because Barbara Fennel, a former pilot, has been found dead in the dunes by a local fisherman.
The marks around Barbara’s neck suggest she was strangled, but there’s no sign of a murder weapon.
When the fisherman goes missing, he becomes the prime suspect. But nobody knows anything about him, let alone where they can find him.
Meanwhile, Ryga traces Barbara’s steps back to the shabby house she rented in Hythe. He finds is a subminiature camera stuffed in her nightdress case — the kind usually used by spies.
Suddenly Ryga is embroiled in a case filled with secrets and lies. A case where no one is who they say they are, and things aren’t always what they seem . . .
