The Mondrian Masking Tape Murders: A Tale of Dark Secrets, Outdoor Sex and Coloured Rectangles

Tiffany Herring, the famous transgender private eye from Cleethorpes, is called in to debunk the supposed Skeleton Strangler at Lawrence Cardew's suburban mansion in Liverpool. But she uncovers a world of murder, bizarre sex games, buried family secrets and blackmail.

The murders are linked by a cryptic note left on the bodies: 'Mondrian used masking tape.' Mondrian was a Dutch abstract painter. The killer appears to be a less artistic psychopath with an elusive sense of humour. When the local police are baffled, Tiffany sets to work. Cardew, his daughter and his house guests are suspects. But so are a vengeful ex-mistress, a Polish labourer and domestics who might almost have been hired for their suspicious behaviour.

Tiffany solves this spoof cosy murder mystery from the mean streets of Liverpool. Why not see if you can solve it yourself from your armchair?
