Postscript to Penelope

When Liane "Lee" Craufurd and her husband Bill rent an upmarket house near the affluent Bayswater district, their temporary retreat from busy city life takes a dramatic turn, as the body of much-sought after model Penelope Russell-Moore is found in the garage.Liane begins to question the motives of the people around her. What is the story behind the self-conscious decorator at No. 3, and why is there a sound-proof room in the house? What could have caused the wife of the American businessman down the road to be so frightened? And what secrets is the invalid millionaire at No. 4 hiding?The more questions Liane asks, the more she finds that everyone has a story, and that some stories are far less innocent than others. Working closely again with Detective Inspector Hugh Gordon of Scotland Yard, Liane must untangle the connections between Penelope and the inhabitants of Cumberland Mews before the murderer can strike again.
