I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Mel Pennant. On this episode we’re going to talk about her book, A Murder for Miss Hortense. A retired nurse, fearless sleuth, and proud Jamaican émigré Miss Hortense is drawn back into the secrets of her British community when a man is found dead in a friend’s home, forcing her to confront a decades-old betrayal and an unsolved crime that still haunts her.
