Sandcastles by The Jupiter Hotel: An Alba White Mystery
Alba White returns.
Holidaying at her favourite Cornish hotel – perched as it is on the cliffs above a remote beautiful, quiet cove – Alba is surprised and embarrassed to bump into an old school friend. Surprised because they have not spoken for years and embarrassed because Alba herself was the cause of their estrangement.
Yet, when the husband of Alba's former friend fails to return to the hotel one evening, Alba senses there might be an opportunity to help and, in so doing, redeem herself.
For whilst a missing husband does not generate much interest from the other hotel residents or even the small tight-knit members of staff who work at 'The Jupiter Hotel', Alba, by contrast, believes something is not right.
A trail of mystery and danger lie ahead but what happens next catches even Alba out.
The trail encompasses a deserted country house, a gifted artist, the hotel's chef who perhaps is wasted at such a small establishment, two young brothers whom Alba takes under her wing and an old map. All of which, somehow, lead Alba to the truth. However, she has to put herself in harm's way to get there.
Or does everything, in the end, come down to the turn of a card?
