The Torso in the Town
by Simon Brett
Grant and Kim Roxby had hoped that their first dinner party at Pelling House would make an impression with their new neighbours. And the next day it's certainly the talk of the town of Fedborough. For their guests - including the couple's old friend Jude - had been enjoying a pleasant meal when they were rudely interrupted by a gruesome discovery. A human torso hidden in the cellar. In this third instalment of the Fethering mystery series, Carole and Jude find themselves turning amateur sleuths once again. They soon begin to question the locals, but they can't help wondering why a town so notoriously distrustful of outsiders is proving so terribly amenable to their enquiries . . .
