About the Book

This short story relates an incident that has unexected and long-term consequences for Detective Constable Peter Johns. When newly-qualified nurse, Susan Parry, is found dead in her bed in the nurses' home, her colleagues call the police to investigate and DC Johns finds himself involved in a murder enquiry for the first time in his career. It is not just his career, however, which is dramatically affected by the events that follow. As he gets to know the other inmates of the home, he finds himself becoming personally involved in the life of one nurse in particular, and this helps to bring home to him the reality of racial prejudice in nineteen-seventies Oxford. Faced with both an apparently intractable murder mystery and the derision and antipathy of some of his colleagues, Peter feels increasingly embattled. Who could have wanted Nurse Parry dead? How did the murderer escape from a locked room? And who will Peter take with him to the Police Ball?
About the Author: Judy graduated from the University of Oxford in 1979 with a degree in Mathematics. She worked in industry and academia before taking a career break, returning to work as a part-time Mathematics Lecturer in 1994. Judy gained a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Liverpool in 2001 and then held post-doctoral research posts at Liverpool (in the Earth Science Department) and UMIST (in the Mathematics Department) before entering the NHS as R&D Manager at Alder Hey Hospital in January 2004. In 2006 she joined the newly-formed North West Stroke Research Network as its manager. This involved recruiting a team of research nurses, allied health professionals and administrative staff to facilitate recruitment to research studies at sites across the North West of England, from Carlisle to Crewe and from Southport to Tameside - a population of approximately seven million people. Currently she works part time as a mathematics lecturer at the University of Chester, while devoting the remainder of her time to writing. She is a Methodist Local Preacher and Secretary of the Parochial Church Council in the small village in Cheshire where she lives with her husband.
