Murder In The Afternoon

Murder In The Afternoon

The third fantastically quirky crime novel set in 1920s Yorkshire and starring amateur sleuth Kate Shackleton.



'Frances Brody has made it to the top rank of crime writers' Daily Mail

Dead one minute


Young Harriet and her brother Austin have always been scared of the quarry where their stone mason father works. So when they find him dead on the cold ground, they scarper quick smart and look for some help.

Alive the next?

When help arrives, however, the quarry is deserted and there is no sign of the body. Were the children mistaken? Is their father not dead? Did he simply get up and run away?

A sinister disappearing act...

It seems like another unusual case requiring the expertise of Kate Shackleton. But for Kate this is one case where surprising family ties makes it her most dangerous - and delicate - yet...
