A Dark Death
Kate Galway is looking forward to a quiet summer working on her latest novel at her home on Meredith Island.  For a place hardly anyone has heard of, her sleepy Welsh island is attracting a lot of visitors, including a conman posing as a psychic and group of archaeology students who believe they’ve unearthed evidence of a Roman temple.  Part-way through the dig, however, the students make an even more startling discovery: a body ritualistically laid out in their trench.  While intrigued by the murder, amateur sleuth Kate decides to leave this investigation to the professionals.  However, when she learns that both the island mechanic and her university friend’s son are prime suspects, she and hedonistic artist Siobhan Fitzgerald feel they have no choice but to get involved.

About the Author

Alice Fitzpatrick has contributed short stories to literary magazines and anthologies and has retired from teaching in order to devote herself to writing full-time.  She is a fearless champion of singing, cats, all things Welsh, and the Oxford comma.  Her summers spent with her Welsh family in Pembrokeshire inspired the creation of Meredith Island.  The traditional mystery appeals to her keen interest in psychology as she is intrigued by what makes seemingly ordinary people commit murder.  Alice lives in Toronto but dreams of a cottage on the Welsh coast.  To learn more about Alice and her writing, please visit her website at www.alicefitzpatrick.com (http://www.alicefitzpatrick.com/)
