Mamatufy If you love Miss Marple or Agatha Raisin, you'll love Rina! _______________________ Originally published as The Power of One . Meet Rina Martin , a retired actress with a taste for tea, gardening and crime solving. She played a TV sleuth for years, but now she has to do it for real . One glorious morning, Rina heads out for a stroll along Frampton promenade, where all is picture-perfect . . . Until she spots something that stops her in her tracks. A luxury yacht sailing round in circles. Rina knows that can't be right. As for the captain, he is nowhere to be seen. Until coastguards board the yacht - to find him shot dead. Execution -style. The captain's name is Paul de Freitas: a high-powered software designer from out of town. What was he doing in Frampton, and who is the mystery man who shared his fate? Rina's determined to get to the bottom of it all - but has she finally bitten off more than she can chew? If you love Agatha Christie, Jeanne M.

Publishers Weekly "Rina's kickoff emphasizes people and place, letting the reader in on secrets early and relying on psychological conflict to drive the appealing plot ." Kirkus ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "A new and better Miss Marple . . . she is intelligent, observant and a most welcome to the DI . . . you'll fall in love with the characters. This reads like a good movie . . . I heartily give this a big thumbs-up." Vicki ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Three cheers for Jane Adams!" Linda ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This is my first book by this author and I will eagerly await more!"

Carmen ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "If you like Agatha Christie and Patricia Wentworth, give these books a try." Pamela THE DETECTIVE Determined and compassionate, Rina Martin on a mission is an unstoppable force. When Rina retired from acting, she bought a B & B in Frantham on Sea. There, she has a quirky cast of full-time boarders, including wannabe magician Tim. She only wanted a quiet life. Instead, events propel Rina into full investigation mode, and she gets a taste for sleuthing. Can she help it if crimes just keep turning up on her doorstep? THE SETTING Tucked away in a charming little bay on the Jurassic coast, Frantham on Sea is a typical Victorian seaside town, with a picture-perfect promenade, B & Bs, and a grand hotel perched atop the headland. At the end of the promenade is the police station, where the officers' days have always been short and uneventful - until Rina comes to town, and things take a turn for the sinister.
