There has been a murder in the quiet seaside village of Sutherlandtown …

Agatha Webb and her cook are found dead in the early hours of the morning after a successful party, and it seems just about anyone could be the killer. Some suspect her aging husband; others think it a robbery gone too far. A few nosy villagers draw a connection between this murder and the deaths of her six children so many years prior: Was she truly a victim, a grieving mother? Or did she play some role in these deaths? The list of suspects grows when a certain wealthy townsmen is blackmailed by someone who believes he murdered Agatha Webb and her cook. In the end, it is up to the young Detective Caleb Sweetwater, a native of Sutherlandtown, to untangle this mystery, find the true killer, and bring them to justice.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Anna Katharine Green

Anna Katharine Green nasceu em Brooklyn, Nova Iorque, em 1846 e faleceu em 1935. Em 1878 publicou a sua primeira história de crime, O Caso da Quinta Avenida (The Leavenworth Case, no título original), alcançando êxito imediato. Tendo sido uma das primeiras mulheres a escrever obras policiais, Green marcou o género com características que viriam a influenciar autores como Agatha Christie ou Arthur Conan Doyle e é hoje apelidada de «avó do romance policial». Com uma obra de mais de quarenta títulos, destacam-se livros como The Affair Next Door (1897), onde introduz a solteirona intrometida Amelia Butterworth, considerada a precursora de Miss Marple, ou The Golden Slipper and Other Problems for Violet Strange (1915), um conjunto de contos policiais centrados naquela que foi uma das primeiras mulheres a desempenhar funções de detetive particular na literatura norte-americana.
