Zusatztext [An] entertaining entry...the indomitable Lois is something of an updated Miss Marple. ( Booklist ) Informationen zum Autor Ann Purser was born in Market Harborough in Leicestershire and has lived most of her life in villages. She has turned her hand to many things, including journalist (as a columnist for SHE magazine), keeper of hens and donkeys, art gallery owner, clerical assistant in a village school, Open University graduate, novelist, mother of three, wife of Philip Purser, critic, and writer. She is an avid reader of detective stories. Klappentext Lois usually steers clear of local gossip! but after tidying up the house that newcomer Reg Abthorpe claims to have inherited! she has more suspicions than she can keep to herself. The home's previous resident was known for his beloved terrier! robust nature! and deficiency of living relatives. So why is Reg presenting himself as the old man's nephew-and where could the sprightly geriatric (and his dog) possibly have gone?
