I have previewed The Fourth String and it is available now for pre-order at Amazon. It will be released December 18, 2017: https://www.amazon.com/…/pro…/B07848BHT2/ref=series_rw_dp_sw
The Fourth String is the final book in Jill Paterson’s “Fitzjohn’s” series and I do believe it is her best. It is an articulate and fast paced murder mystery that pulls the reader in with the first few pages and keeps building interest as more possible suspects are introduced, all with intriguing and conceivable motives. The victim, Crispin Fairchild, the conductor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, is found lying in a pool of blood in his apartment at the Claremont Hotel by a neighbor who quickly becomes a prime suspect with a surprising motive of her own. Chief Inspector Fitzjohn hones in on his usual eccentric and ever widening investigation with the help of his trusted partner, Sergeant Betts. They leave no stone unturned as they wind down their wide variety of fascinating clues to the unexpected solution of who the real murderer is. Over the course of the series, the author kept a couple of unsavory characters who kept finding irritating ways to disturb Inspector Fitzjohn and she ends this work with perfect solutions and pay back for their constant vexations. The memorable family members and respected associates of Fitzjohn in the series all end up with suitable prospects for the future that leaves the reader fulfilled. Great job Jill! I am eager to read your next work.
