Judges’ comments
A page-turning mystery that does something genuinely new with a classic whodunnit setup, and adds a flavour of the Windrush Generation experience. Miss Hortense is a smart, savvy, sassy addition to the pantheon of retired amateur detectives, and the community she lives and works in is brilliantly drawn.
