A gripping novella from Ann Cleeves, featuring Detective Inspector Jimmy Perez from the bestselling Shetland series.
When young teacher Anna Blackwell is found dead in her home, the police think her death was suicide or a tragic accident. After all, Stonebridge is a quiet rural village in the Scottish Borders, where murders just don't happen.
But Detective Inspector Jimmy Perez soon arrives from far-away Shetland when his ex-wife, Sarah, asks him to look into the case. The local gossips are saying that her new husband, Tom, was having an affair with Anna. Could Tom have been involved with her death? Sarah refuses to believe it - but needs proof.
Anna had been a teacher. She must have loved kids. Would she kill herself knowing there was nobody to look after her daughter? She had seemed happier than ever before she died. And to Perez, this suggests not suicide, but murder...
A note from the publisher:
Too Good To Be True was written in 2016 as part of a reading initiative in the UK called Quick Reads. Quick Reads provide a route into reading that prioritises great storytelling and adult-focused content while ensuring the books are written in an accessible and easy to read style. They are intended to be a brilliant entry point to new genres, and authors such as Ann, as well as the spark to reignite or build up the joy of reading. Writing such a story perfectly aligns with Ann's own philosophy of promoting reading and literacy. We also hope that you enjoy meeting Jimmy Perez again!
