Harbor Street - A Vera Stanhope Mystery- Ann Cleeves does it again!! 5 Stars!

This mystery twisted and turned until the very end , which was Christmas Eve! Joe Ashworth and his daughter Jessie were on the Metro 
(rapid transit in US) returning from his daughters choir concert in Newcastle Northumberland.

The train stops before the destination at Mardle dues to excessive snow. Passengers were being collected by a transit bus, but Jessie notices a nearby passenger was not moving. She runs back to "wake" the lady and then screams! This gripping tale both begins and ends with Jessie.

The murder victim,"Margaret Krukowski has been fatally stabbed. Why would anyone want to harm this reserved, elegant lady?" (Publisher blurb) The rest of the story revolves around Margaret's life on Harbor Street which had many twists and turns. Mardle a fictional town held many deep secrets and Ann Cleeves wove an impressive tale, as always!
