Kirsten's wasn't the only wedding planned for that July day. At Morbay register office, a terrified young girl makes her wedding vows. Days later, her bridegroom is found dead in a seedy seaside hotel.
Meanwhile, the discovery of a skeleton unearths connections with an Elizabethan playwright and a rarely performed play that may be a confession to an age-old murder or may cast light on recent mysteries.

"A beguiling author who interweaves past and present." (The Times)
"marriage hearse"
Good crime book with enough twists and turns to keep you listening til the end. This was a leap in the dark for me as I have not come accross this author before, I have since read more of her writing. The narration is good and allows good flow of the prose.
