An Unfortunate Return

'An Unfortunate Return' is the 27th novel in the Pitkirtly Mysteries series.
The small town of Pitkirtly is infested with roadworks thanks to the local council's plan to introduce a Low Traffic Neighbourhood. Many local people predict traffic mayhem, but none of them expect a murder, a mysterious attack in broad daylight outside the church hall, or the more minor havoc wreaked by an environmental campaigner. Several of these incidents seem to be connected to a disappearance in the Alps a few years before. Local knowledge, sticky notes and a good deal of thought are required to solve all the puzzles.
