Murder in the Mill-Race by E.C.R. Lorac
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dr Raymond Ferens and his wife Anne move to Milham, North Devon, mainly for his health. But all is not tranquil and calm as first appears, and Ferens has his suspicions why. Not too many months later Sister Monica, warden of the children's home called Gramarye is found dead, presumably drowned. When the local police make no headway, Scotland Yard is called in, and Chief Inspector Macdonald and D.I. Reeves arrive.
Although the detectives appears in other books by this author this is a standalone story.
An enjoyable well-written mystery, another by this author, with some well-devloped characters.
Originally written in 1952.
