No Deckchair for the Dead – A Retirement Home Mystery (vol. II)

A trip to the Baltic with a corpse - this should be interesting!

After the murder of the cook Selma has been solved, peace is slowly returning to the retirement home. Mrs Mildew, the home’s director, decides that a change of scenery is needed, and so she takes the home’s twenty-five residents off to the Baltic. The turbulent journey is almost behind them and the coastline finally comes into view. But something doesn’t feel right – and they soon discover what is wrong. Erwin, sitting comfortably in his deckchair, is dead. It’s time for retired detective Helmut Katuschek to get to work. This’ll certainly be a boredom killer…
