Lying Dead
by Aline Templeton
On a beautiful, eerily quiet May morning, a girl is found brutally
bludgeoned to death. When Detective Inspector Marjory Fleming arrives,
the silence of the scene is broken only by the ringing of the girl's
cell phone. The nearby community of Drumbreck is small and close-knit,
but the veneer of contented prosperity conceals nasty secrets and daily
betrayals. When another corpse is discovered, DI Fleming quickly
realizes she must watch her own back while she searches for the link
between the murders. As she uncovers layer upon layer of intrigue and
deceit, it becomes apparent that while the dead can't tell lies, the
living most certainly can.
