Official synopsis Publisher
It’s Christmas on Inkerman Street and retired tax inspector G. D. H. Pringle is all set to enjoy some quiet, and perhaps romantic, time with his lady friend, Mavis Bignell, when a shocking murder is committed. To kill a harmless old man for such little money must be the work of a psychopath. The police focus their attention on one likely suspect, but peculiarities complicate the investigation, including a possible connection between the murder and a savage attack on a woman in London’s Southend. Back on Inkerman Street, Mr. Pringle is reluctant to get involved, but urged on by the confident Mrs. Bignell, he decides to do some quiet sleuthing of his own. Tragedy and humor are cleverly intertwined as G. D. H. Pringle encounters violence in his own backyard in Nancy Livingston’s gritty, suspenseful new novel.
