The Girl Who Lived Alone

The Girl Who Lived Alone 
Death is central to the stories in this collection - and death comes in strange ways, for differing reasons and with surprising consequences.

Barbara Hammond just about survives death and her assailant gets away with it. Or does he? There is, seemingly, a gulf between criminal and natural justice. The author explores this paradox with ingenuity.

The impoverished aristocratic family in Murder at the Abbey are so arrogant and ignorant of the modern world that they assume they can rely on the loyalty of their servants. When Lord Newton, known as Golden Boy by those 'below stairs', gets into yet another scrape, his mother wades in to save the family's honour. The upshot is contentious, to say the least.

In The Pick-Up Lance Harvey, a successful architect seemingly happily married, meets Helen Forrest, an aspiring actress, in a London bar. In no time he is experiencing emotion he never knew he had … with alarming consequences. He does not want divorce, she does not want marriage, but neither can see life without each other. How death intervenes is heart-breaking for all concerned.
