And she discovered, to everyone's surprise, that she had a flair for solving the most unholy of crimes. <br> <br>FAITH MARTIN is the million-selling author of the <b>DETECTIVE HILLARY GREENE and JENNY STARLING mysteries</b>, which have topped the global best-seller charts. <br> <br><b>What readers are saying about The Manor House Murder</b> <br> <br>"<b>Loved</b> it" Aileen <br> <br>"Definitely my favourite series to date from Faith Martin and always a one sitting read. <b>Absolutely full marks for sheer enjoyment value.</b>" Ruth <br> <br>"A <b>truly wonderful</b> series."
