Táto séria sleduje talentovanú violončelistku, ktorá sa skrýva pod závojom amatérskej detektívky. Odohráva sa v malebnom anglickom meste Bath, kde hlavná hrdinka využíva svoj bystrý úsudok na riešenie zložitých prípadov. Čitatelia sa môžu tešiť na napínavé zápletky zasadené do historického prostredia.
Mit einem Konzert im englischen Bath will die berühmte Cellistin Sara nach einem Schicksalsschlag einen neuen Start versuchen. Doch als sie bei ihrem Morgengang den Museumsdirektor tot im Römischen Bad findet, wünscht sie sich meilenweit fort. Sara kennt die korrupte Kulturszene der Stadt gut genug, um einen grausamen Verdacht zu hegen...Gut genug, um sich selbst zu retten?
International cellist Sara Selkirk regrets becoming involved with the local amateur opera group, as the other members of the group continue to bicker and squabble. What she doesn't expect to encounter is sudden, violent death.
The discovery of a murdered Japanese tourist in a Bath pub appears to be just another complication in Sara Selkirk's life. Her developing relationship with DCI Andrew Poole is under enough strain already, ever since she brought her former teacher Joyce Cruikshank under her roof. Not to mention her dog Pretzel. Sara seems to have found the perfect solution when she finds a job for Joyce at a private health clinic where her distinguished pianist friend James Ballantyne is a reluctant patient. The Sulis Clinic, combining naturopathy, modern medicine, creative therapies and the beautiful surroundings of the historic spa town of Bath, enjoys a remarkable success rate. So why isn't James getting any better? And where is Joyce slipping off to every day? As Sara delves into the mysteries surrounding the clinic, one thing becomes clear: Pretzel the Dachshund isn't the only one in danger.
