A Shilling For Candles - Inspector Alan Grant, Book 2 (Unabridged)

The second book in the Inspector Alan Grant series. <br/> Beneath the sea cliffs of the south coast, suicides are a sad but common fact. Yet even the hardened coastguard knows something is wrong when a beautiful young film actress is found lying dead on the beach one morning, even though the area is notorious for such incidents. <br/> However, it soon becomes clear that darker motives were afoot, and potential suspects in the death of Christine Clay stack up at a rapid pace. As the case grows murkier, the man who spent the last week of Clay&amp;#39;s life living with her in a remote cottage goes on the run, and Inspector Alan Grant must race to uncover the truth. <br/> A Shilling for Candles was the basis for Alfred Hitchcock&amp;#39;s Young and Innocent.
