When a body washes up at the banks of the river in Affacombe village, the residents are thrown into disarray.
It turns out to be the quiet and solitary matron at the local school: Sister Roach.
But when the police start to investigate it appears Roach’s unassuming demeanour hid a much darker secret…
With rumours of blackmail and clandestine affairs, it becomes clear that more than one person may have wanted Roach dead.

Who was Roach blackmailing? And why?
And what hidden affairs drove someone to murder…?

With the crime falling under the jurisdiction of the Highcastle police force, who had worked with Scotland Yard a few years ago, Detective Superintendent Pollard and Detective Sergeant Toye are once more drafted in to help.
Is this an open and shut case? Did Drusilla poison her aunt?
Or did someone else send her Cyanide With Compliments?
