June Wright was mostly forgotten until the reissue last year of her 1948 bestseller Murder in the Telephone Exchange (also available from Turnaround), when a new generation of readers fell in love with her blend of intrigue, wit, and suspense - and her sharp-eyed, outspoken sleuth, Maggie Byrnes. In this sequel Maggie is living in the suburbs, but violent death dogs her footsteps even in apparently tranquil Middleburn. It's no great surprise when an unpopular local bigwig is shot, but Maggie suspects someone is also targeting his infant heir.
