Synopsis

Lesley Cookman's bestselling series featuring super sleuth Libby Sarjeant is back for its fourth instalment!

Nobody wants to be 'a nuisance to a killer', but is it too late?
Psychic investigator Fran Castle gets a request from the police to help when a body discovered on a rocky island in the middle of Nethergate Bay thoroughly stumps them.

Libby Sarjeant, Fran's sleuthing partner, is on the case too, refusing to abandon Fran to solve the case alone. Together they delve into the shameful world of the exploitation of illegal immigrants.

Libby's partner, Ben, is concerned that her occasionally over-enthusiastic investigations might get her into trouble. His worries seem justified as Libby and Fran get on the trail of a war-time fascist spy. No one wants to be 'a nuisance to a killer', and Libby and Fran may have just acquired that dangerous position...
