'Satisfyingly intriguing' Faith Martin 'J.M. Hall has mastered the warmth of a perfect modern
cosy crime with all the twists and turns that go with it. I really enjoyed it!' Hannah Hendy
Retired schoolteachers and amateur sleuths Liz Pat and Thelma are giving up their coffee
morning for a brand-new mystery. Retired teachers Pat Liz and Thelma are happiest whiling away
their hours over coffee cake and chat at the Thirsk Garden Centre café. But when their good
friend tells them about an unsettling experience she had in a sinister-feeling charity shop
they simply can't resist investigating... Because the entire shop has vanished into thin air.
Before long our trio of unlikely sleuths find themselves embroiled in a race against the clock
to get to the bottom of this mystery - but who has a secret to hide and how far will they go to
keep it concealed? Only time will tell... Praise for A Clock Stopped Dead : ' Satisfyingly
intriguing ' Faith Martin author of the Travelling Cook Mysteries series 'This book feels just
like a visit to old friends ! The relationship between Liz Pat and Thelma is so warm funny
and relatable that you could be forgiven for thinking that the plot is almost a secondary
concern but no - there's proper twists and turns and a very satisfying conclusion. This
series just goes from strength to strength ' Fiona Leitch author of the Nosey Parker cosy
