Murder at the Broadstairs' Funfair
Murder at the Broadstairs' Funfair (Fourth in the Alan Clarke crime series)
DCI Alan Clarke, now settled in Beltinge with his wife Zoe and their young son, is given the urgent case to solve the high-profile murder of well-known author Stephen Wards’ wife Chloe. Her strangulated lifeless body has been found on a public bench on the Broadstairs’ promenade next to the Bank Holiday Funfair.
A tangled web of suspects emerges, ranging from Chloe’s famous husband, his best friend Richard, their nanny Kaye and a local boy with a huge crush on Chloe named Sam. There is also Vince, a gypsy from the funfair.
At home, Zoe has recently given birth to their baby daughter and is suffering from post natal depression, so Alan enlists the help of Monique, a French au pair. Unfortunately it becomes clear that Monique has her own psychological problems which could endanger their children.
As pressure to solve the murder case builds, Alan finds himself torn between his home life and work; not realising that the two are already more deeply and dangerously entangled than he ever thought possible.

About the author:
Carol M. Creasey
Kent born author Carol M. Creasey wrote her first book about her autistic son in 1993 titled My Life is Worth Living! With four children to cope with, that book brilliantly reflects her struggles balancing a full family life and still giving her son the extra care he needed. Many years later, in her novel The Power of Love, Carol drew from these same experiences to write about the life of a young 1960s mother coping with an autistic son.
As well as looking after her family, Carol has had a career as a manager in various china and glass merchandising establishments and also owned her own shop. Writing has always remained an important part in Carol’s life, and since the original publication of My Life is Worth Living! she has now published twelve novels, including the first three from the Alan Clarke crime series, and her autobiography Candidly Carol. Carol has been the recipient of three Reader’s Choice Awards, winning a coveted first place with the recently republished My Life is Worth Living!
