Book Description

In the stately halls of Prickly Hall, secrets refuse to stay buried. When Ginny Beans stumbles upon the body of a stranger, strangled and abandoned in the lounge, shockwaves ripple through the quaint village of Thistlebrook. Who was the mysterious woman, and why was she left in such a gruesome state within the grand rooms of Prickly Hall?

The villagers are bewildered, but one person knows just how to uncover the truth: Biddy Apple, Thistlebrook Hollow’s sharp-witted retired headmistress. When Ginny turns to her for help, Biddy finds herself pulled into a tangle of old grudges, hidden vendettas, and long-held secrets. As she unravels the mystery, Biddy must dig beneath the village’s placid exterior to reveal a past filled with love, betrayal, and simmering animosities.

With her keen sense of observation and a knack for seeing what others miss, Biddy takes readers on another enthralling journey through the cobblestone streets of Thistlebrook. Will she be able to peel back the layers of deception to find the truth before it’s too late?

Set in the heart of the English countryside, The Body in the Lounge offers a perfect blend of charm, suspense, and intrigue. Join Biddy Apple as she delves into the secrets of Prickly Hall in this delightful cosy mystery—available now on Kindle Unlimited.
