Their neighbour, retired journalist Wynne Carter, is as convivial as the village itself and, over a glass of blackberry wine, indulges in her latest obsession, Olivia Smeaton, a racy old lady whose life - and death - she is convinced are not all they seem. Markby is more interested in buying Olivia's house than the circumstances of her vacating it, but Meredith is intrigued: by the old lady, the death of a cherished horse and a dusty junk shop run by a white witch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen another fatality - of a very grisly nature - is discovered, it seems her suspicion is justified. Clearly Olivia isn't the only enigma in Parsloe St John - and her death might be the first of many unless Meredith Mitchell and Alan Markby can make sense of some very secret lives to reach the truth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat readers are saying about \u003ci\u003eA Word After Dying\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'If you like your crime novels written in a \u003cb\u003elow key style\u003c\/b\u003e with \u003cb\u003eplenty of amusing moments\u003c\/b\u003e and not too much graphic violence then this is the series for you'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Yet \u003cb\u003eanother great Mitchell \u0026amp; Markby whodunit\u003c\/b\u003e'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'An \u003cb\u003einvigorating\u003c\/b\u003e novel!'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56450562294134,"sku":"9780747251873","price":9.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_14134080_jpg.jpg?v=1760453437","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780747251873-a-word-after-dying-mitchell-markby-10","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
