The purge continues in the Book Basset household. If this quarantine lasts much longer, there will be nothing left in the house. Being stuck at home for so long, I realize just how much stuff I have and how little of it I ever actually look at. Poor hubby. I had asked and asked for him to put shelves up in one corner of the garage so I could organize the corner. He spent a good hour in a tight little corner, cursing and sweating, because it’s never just a straight forward job. After all his hard work, I cleaned out the area and in the end, I only had one item for the four shelves he put in. I keep telling him I am not done with that corner of the garage yet, but to be honest I am. I gotta find something to put on those shelves, or he will never put shelves up for me again. We just can’t have that.

In this case, they claim their job is to protect Lucy’s line.

DUPLICITY: A compelling Scottish murder mystery (Detective Inspector Munro murder mysteries Book 4)
by Pete Brassett
Genre: Crime Fiction | Mystery
FREE for a limited time
A local businessman disappears during a meal shared by old friends. When he is later found dead, DI Munro must cut through a densely-woven web of deceit to find out why.
The Carduccis and the Buchanans have been best of friends for years, but simmering under the surface are long-held jealousies and disagreements that only the criminal affairs of the men have kept at bay.
When, during a meal, Angus Buchanan steps out of the house to fetch a bottle of wine from the car and subsequently disappears, the police are quickly informed. But when the most likely explanations are ruled out, detectives Munro and West are called upon to investigate possible foul play.
When Buchanan is later found, having suffered a violent death, pathology rules out natural causes and it becomes clear that a terrible murder has occurred.
Faced with the lack of real cooperation from the parties involved, who are clearly protecting their nefarious business interests, the man responsible for Buchanan’s death is found relatively quickly. But when he pretty much laughs in the face of the detectives’ accusations, Munro and West realise that there must be much bigger fish to fry.
In an investigation that takes them as far afield as Oslo, Norway, and into the past of a troubled Polish man, Munro’s dream of a tranquil life in the countryside is further put on hold, and the ever ravenous Charlie West, must continue to battle the ways and mores of a Scottish backwater without losing her cool.
With more red herrings than a Norwegian fishing boat in the sunset, DUPLICITY is a highly entertaining cosy Scandinavian-style murder mystery that will appeal to anyone who enjoys a gripping read where guessing the identity of the murderer is key.
DUPLICITY is the fourth novel by Pete Brassett to feature Detective Inspector James Munro and Detective Sergeant Charlotte West. The books can be enjoyed as stand-alone titles or as part of a series.
