Second edition of the debut full-length crime novel by Sarah Jackson (first published through Serenade Publishing 2022).
Senior Constable Ivy Driscoll is experiencing an unexpected and unwanted tree change. Following the disastrous end to her affair with a Chief Inspector, she has been relegated to the rural police station of Donnywell. Although she is the granddaughter of Country Women’s Association royalty, Ivy is quintessentially a city girl, knowing nothing of domestic life, baking or rural daily life and goings on.
She barely has time to unpack when she finds herself thrust into her new life. Within a day of her arrival, Chester Winterbourne, the president of the district poultry club and his prize-winning rooster are brutally murdered. Disillusioned with the world, heart-broken and lacking in confidence, Ivy must solve the murders to prove herself fit for the job, win the hearts and minds of the locals, and hopefully get to know Paul, the dishy vet. With the city and her old life behind her, will this enforced fresh start be just what Ivy needs?
Reviews:
“A dead man. A dead rooster. A vivid and bloody mess. Great pace. Endearing characters. Red herrings galore. Sarah Jackson’s dry wit and catchy storytelling is a great escape.”
Leanne Margaret, author of “The Love of the Universe” & “Multidimensional Meditation”
“Right out of the gate, I was rallying for the main character. Ivy, big city cop relegated to a rural posting had been dealt a shit hand of cards and found herself in the less than enviable position of having to take a boring, rural posting.”
Peter Dowse, author of “A Dying Second Sun”
