COLD FLAT JUNCTION is the sequel to Martha Grimes' HOTEL PARADISE and in it Emma Graham continues her search for answers surrounding the fate of Mary-Evelyn, who was also twelve when she drowned, supposedly by accident, in Spirit Lake. And the murder of Fern Queen remains to be solved. COLD FLAT JUNCTION is a delicate yet agonising view of the decisions a young girl must make on her way to becoming an adult, and a novel with extraordinary range and depth.

Martha Grimes lives in Washington DC and visits England regularly to research her internationally best selling Richard Jury novels, all of which are available from Headline and have been widely praised:

'Notable for its.., authenticity and for the cast of delightful eccentric characters' Publishers Weekly

'A good puzzler' Manchester Evening News

'Grimes is gifted at exploring the private, sometimes horrifying yet utterly mundane thoughts of ordinary people' San Francisco Chronicle

'Martha Grimes is a real find' Evening Standard
