Warning at One

Description

The tenants of Lois Meade’s terrace house in Tresham are frustrated by their neighbor’s feisty pet cockerel, Satan. His owner, Clem Fitch, refuses to part with his feathery companion-making Lois’s tenants fly the coop. Luckily, her son Douglas agrees to rent the house.

But when Clem and Satan are found dead, Douglas-who is involved with Clem’s daughter-becomes a prime suspect in some foul business.Ann Purser was born in Market Harborough in Leicestershire and has lived most of her life in villages.
