Retired schoolteachers Liz, Pat and Thelma are back at their usual
table at the Thirsk Garden Centre café with a brand-new mystery to
solve… Curious white envelopes have been delivered to friends and
neighbours. Inside are letters revealing the deepest secrets they
have tried to hide. As one by one, careers are ended, marriages
destroyed and no one is beyond suspicion, the three friends decide
enough is enough. They must take matters into their own hands
before more damage is done. But as they work to uncover the truth,
they begin to wonder just how far someone will go to silence this
poison pen… Could a murderer be in their midst once again? The

Murders will be hooked from the very first page. Readers love this
