Chief Superintendent Charmian Daniels is on sick-leave at her home
in Windsor, which she shares with her cat, Muff. She has her first
encounter with her enigmatic neighbour, Miss Eagle, when their cats
have a fight. Although Winifred Eagle lives alone she receives many
visitors, nearly all female, one of whom is a local policewoman.
Rumour has it that the group are a coven of witches. One of their
number, a young woman, is brutally murdered in her own home, her
hands tied in front of her, her body surrounded by objects usually
associated with witchcraft. Someone arrives to find her dead, but
leaves and says nothing. Later that day the grisly scene is
discovered by beauty consultant Denise Flaxon who raises the alarm.
Despite being on leave, Charmian finds herself drawn into
investigations of the coven and comes up against a wall of silence.
Who is the dead woman, and why did she come to Windsor? And what is
the true identity of the witches' companion, the enigmatic Josh
Fox? In this superbly crafted whodunit Charmian Daniels cleverly
unveils the truth and reveals a killing motivated by baser
instincts than the supernatural.
