We’re thrilled to draw crime and thriller readers’ attention to this fantastic tale of murder… and astrology!

The fourth book in the popular Stella Penhaligon Thrillers series set in rural, coastal Cornwall, Murder By Mercury takes us straight into the meat of this grisly chiller, killing off its first victim within a few pages of the opening…

Stella Penhaligon agrees to be the official astrologer attached to Druid’s Den, her friend Luke’s new occult shop. But when a local dignitary is found murdered at the shop’s grand opening, she and Luke are among the chief suspects.

After much dithering, DS Jack Church and Stella have finally starting dating. Now Jack feels duty-bound to cool off, at least until the killer is caught. Left isolated, and with Jack barred from the investigation, Stella has little faith in the new team’s ability to solve this one.

Her astrology skills may be required once more, this time to prove her innocence. But it’s soon clear this case is darker and more dangerous than anything she’s been involved with before.
