In this thrilling installment, danger emerges in Weston St Ambrose as Inspector Campbell and Superintendent Carter race against time to solve a chilling murder case in A Matter of Murder.

In A Matter of Murder, the seventh installment of the Campbell and Carter series by Ann Granger, danger lurks in the quaint village of Weston St Ambrose. The story follows Miff Ferguson, who, after opting out of society's rat race and living a carefree life on the streets, encounters a shocking turn of events. As winter approaches, Miff stumbles upon a dead body in an abandoned warehouse, thrusting him into a perilous game of cat-and-mouse with a killer. This unexpected discovery forces Miff to seek refuge with his relatives in the village, but trouble seems to follow him relentlessly.

Inspector Jess Campbell and Superintendent Ian Carter are called back into action as they work to unravel the mystery surrounding the murder. Just when they think they have a handle on the situation, another body is discovered at a nearby farm, raising the stakes and urgency of their investigation. With time running out, the duo must navigate the complexities of the case while keeping the village safe from a potential serial killer.

A Matter of Murder captivates readers with its blend of suspense, intricate plotting, and well-drawn characters. Fans of cozy mysteries will appreciate Granger's signature style, which combines humor with a compelling narrative. As the investigation unfolds, the stakes grow higher, and the tension mounts, making it a thrilling read for anyone who enjoys a good whodunit.
