The Empty Easel

A Summer Mystery from the Author of The Corfe Castle Murders

Previously published as A Brush with Death.

It's summer and Lyme Regis is rammed with tourists. DC Tina Abbott is hoping her kids can have some fun on the beach with their granny Annie, who in turn is enjoying time with her swimming club.

But then Annie and her friends’ morning swim is disturbed when they spot the body of local artist Clifford Muldoon, floating near the Cobb.

Tina has things under control. But Annie, emboldened by her involvement in Lyme Regis’s last murder case, wants to get involved. And could the swimmers have information that might help solve the crime?

The Empty Easel is the second book in the Jurassic Coast Mystery series, featuring characters from the bestselling Dorset Crime series and perfect for fans of a seaside mystery... and monstrous cake-eating seagulls.
