Publisher Description
A MATTER OF BIRTH AND DEATH
The serene Brandywine Valley wakes up to a chilling double shock: a baby abandoned on the porch of a caretaker's cottage, and a young woman found dead on the estate of a billionaire scotch whiskey magnate. Detective Parrott's instincts tell him the two incidents are connected, but the evidence points him in directions that are both baffling and personal. Parrott searches for answers in high and low places, including his own department. As he races to find the truth about the baby's origin, he untangles murder clues that implicate people with secrets that even their positions of power and trust can't protect. Once again, Parrott may have to risk his reputation—and even his life—to uncover the real story.
A compulsive and compelling police procedural with relatable characters who remain in your heart. If you like detectives from Louisa Scarr, Clare Mackintosh, and Michael Connelly, you'll love Detective Oliver Parrott.
Customer Reviews
Excellent mystery
Saralyn Richard again hits it out of the park with well-developed plot and characters. We are drawn into the story with a baby mysteriously left on the porch of a couple who live and work for a wealthy Scotch producer. Shortly after, a dead woman who has recently given birth is also found in the property. We follow the intrepid Detective Parrott as he tracks down every bit of evidence to lead him to the murderer. Richard weaves in interesting back story details that provide good pacing for the story. Nicely done! —Dale Marie Taylor, author of Carrie’s Song, A Home for Easter and Hester’s Journey
