The Strange Death of Paul Ruel

Last year's The Problem with Murder was a bestseller here in the Blue Mountains. Now Michael Duffy has written a sequel, The Strange Death of Paul Ruel. It drips with drama and local colour, including death after falling from a great height.

Local newspaper editor Bella Greaves investigates the connection between a fatal accident and the glamorous owner of a Katoomba fashion label.

Meanwhile her friend, disgraced detective Paul Ruel, believes his life is in danger. His bosses think he’s imagining things – or maybe they just don’t care. When disaster strikes, it is left to Bella to discover what happened.
