关于此电子书

'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 mystery series

作者简介

Jonathan Hall lives in Yorkshire, where, after more years than he’d care to remember, he has just retired from being Deputy Head of a Primary School.

His plays have been produced in theatres across the UK as well as for radio, the most recent being the BBC Radio 4 series Trust starring Julie Hesmondhalgh, the fourth series of which has just aired with a fifth currently in production.

His first novel, the international bestseller A Spoonful of Murder, introduced us to the unlikely crime-solving trio of retired teachers, Pat, Liz and Thelma. Their sleuthing adventures continue in A Pen Dipped in Poison and A Clock Stopped Dead.
