An extremely mesmerising woman, Venetia holds everyone she comes across enraptured. So when Venetia is found dead in suspicious circumstances the question is: exactly who would want to kill her?
Those who were close to Venetia find themselves forced together as the web around this compelling woman rapidly unravels. Suspicion and mistrust mount to boiling point as events reveal more and more about the kind of woman Venetia really was. Who Calls the Tune oozes the claustrophobic atmosphere it creates until the reader feels as though they are ensconced amongst the pages, alongside this quirky cast of characters. This novel is a classic murder mystery which will keep you guessing until the final pages.
Nina Bawden made her mark early in her career as a writer of excellent mysteries, especially remarkable for her observation of character. Out-of-print for many years, seven of these classic novels are now available through Bello.
