ABOUT THE BOOK

Mystery writer J. Lea Koretsky of the Dalton Keys Series (a coroner marshal detective set in Joshua Tree), is now out with a sensational new novel, ROPE. ROPE is three novels in one book also featuring ROOM and DEATHMASK, each about CID (Central Intelligence Division) investigations in Scotland and England.

In ROPE three physicians-in-training and five nurse shipmates are murdered by rope hanging at their college of medicine in Edinburgh, Scotland after a day outing consisting of military exercises.

In ROOM the locked room shooting of a county planning commissioner befuddles CID as they investigate six murders at a boathouse on the Birmingham-Laval Canal, England. Known to investigators throughout Great Britain as the “no egg” case, this crime focuses on a team of divers whose bodies were found in opaque morgue bags.

In  DEATHMASK the famous Brughel murder of a young Backwalk girl who is brutally stabbed and left for dead haunts forensic detectives in the Clough in Ireland.
