Dams, The Thursday Murder Club, Glenda Young, Stella Cameron, Frances Evesham or Ann Cleeves, prepare to be hooked by this enchanting character-driven mystery! The couple's two young sons were left to discover their mother fatally injured before the eldest called the police. He admitted to officers while on the platform that he had just killed his wife.
