Young barrister Michael Cantrip has skipped off to the Channel Islands to take on a tax-law case that’s worth a fortune—if Cantrip’s tax-planning cronies can locate the missing heir. But Cantrip has waded in way over his head. Strange things are happening on these mysterious, isolated isles. Something is going bump in the night—and bumping off members of the legal team, one by one.
Soon Cantrip is messaging the gang at the home office for help. And it’s up to amateur investigator Hilary Tamar, Oxford don turned supersleuth, to get Cantrip back to the safety of his chambers—alive!
Don’t miss any of Sarah Caudwell’s riveting Hilary Tamar mysteries:

Customer Reviews
The Sirens Sang of Murder
If you like sharp, smart British wit with very quirky characters and gentle mystery, this book is for you. This is One of four novels with the same set of characters, young British barristers and an older law professor. Alas, Sarah Caudwell, a barrister herself, died young, leaving only the four.
The mystery is almost beside the point. It is the relationships and the wit the makes all her books worth reading and very high on my list of all time favorite mysteries.
