‘A new whodunit featuring Mallorquin cop Enrique Alvarez is as welcome as a week in the sun’ Financial Times Bevis Ogden was the beneficiary of a substantial life insurance policy when his first wife was killed in an accident. Which makes him the prime suspect when the body of wife number two ...
.... is found at the bottom of a gorge. Where British expatriates are concerned, however, things are rarely as straightforward as they seem. For a start, there is a strong possibility that the two Mrs Ogdens were in fact one and the same woman – or at least, that is the startling theory put to Alvarez by an insurance investigator who believes that his company have been the victim of an elaborate scam perpetrated by Bevis and Belinda/Sabrina Ogden.
There is no doubt that Mrs Ogden is dead this time around, but was the murderer her husband, or her lover, Rino Rodolfo – a gigolo who enjoys a lucrative life with a much older, and very wealthy, Englishwoman? Alvarez thinks he knows the answer, but proving his theory is another matter.
