Bøger i Hippolyta Napier serien

Hippolyta Napier was hoping for good tenants for her new cottage, but the first resident is already dead. Who was he? Why was he there? And will the disappearance of a fitness instructor and the strange activities of a new bride offer any clue to the mystery?

The recently married Hippolyta Napier is making a new life amidst Aberdeenshire's dark woods and pure, flowing waters. But suspicion, intrigue and death await at her new home, and the forces of nature take few prisoners.

The dreadful day is approaching for the Napiers in Ballater: Hippolyta Napier's mother is coming to stay. But Mrs. Fettes is not just in Aberdeenshire to visit her youngest daughter: she has other reasons, and one will draw the whole family in, with deadly results.

A red dawn breaks over winter woodland, where two men stand, pistols drawn. Political strife has come to peaceful Ballater, bringing death in its wake, and Hippolyta Napier is once more drawn to find out more - even when her own life is in danger. This is the third in the Hippolyta Napier series set in 19th. century Scotland.
