Description: "When Flora Coombe, best-selling author of murder mysteries, disappears she hits the headlines. Flora surprised everyone when she took a second husband, years younger than herself, whom she has saved from the gallows. Her pride and vanity shattered by her husband's betrayal, she stages her own disappearance and apparent murder at the hands of her young husband. How does a famous writer lay low when half the country are looking for her? By taking on the persona of a Victorian-style nanny on a mysterious Cornish estate - where guilty secrets make her venture into childcare as dangerous as anything she has written."--Publisher's description.
