The Body in the Boat

By A.J. MacKenzie

Book Overview

A gripping tale of murder and mystery in 18th-century England. Across the still, dark English Channel come the smugglers. But tonight they carry an unusual cargo: a coffin. Several miles inland, a respected banker holds a birthday party for his wife. Within days, one of the guests is found shot dead. What links this apparently senseless killing to the smugglers lurking in the mists? Why has the local bank been buying and hoarding gold? And who was in the mysterious coffin? With its unique cast of characters and captivating amateur sleuths, this twisting tale vividly brings to 18th-century Kent to life, and draws readers into its pages.
