Murder In The Museum (Fethering Mysteries) - Plot & Excerpts
She had had all the windows open most of the previous day, and only a residual tang of cigarette now hung about Woodside Cottage. It was a long time since she had cohabited with anyone for more than a night, and she couldn’t deny her relief at having the house to herself. The fact that she knew Laurence Hawker to be in the company – almost certainly the bed – of another woman could not have worried her less.

Now . . . the image of the other woman did not even enter her mind. Partly, she knew, this was because she had matured. And partly . . . it was because of Laurence’s circumstances.
