Hidden Sins by Alison Joseph
It is a novella featuring Agatha Christie as a detective, the second in the series (the first was Murder Will Out).
It is June, 1925. Agatha Christie is holidaying in Cornwall and working on a new novel, a romance. But her plans are interrupted when one of the guests is found shot dead on the hotel tennis courts. Frederick Collyer was researching the life of a local man, an eminent chemist who worked on camouflage. As Agatha is drawn into the investigation, it becomes clear that the killing has its roots in the Great War, and the truth is obscured by the shadows it still casts.
HIDDEN SINS is available from Amazon and Amazon UK.
