Description

When a woman is found battered to death in a small village near the sea, Detective Inspector Savory is pleased to accept the assistance of Detective Superintendent Price of Scotland Yard, who is on holiday in the area.

The dead woman, a refugee, has always kept herself to herself -- but why was she murdered?

Then a relative of another local resident is washed up dead on the beach -- not drowned, but shot -- and the two policemen have a real mystery on their hands...
The fifth in the D.I. Price Mystery series, All is Discovered is an intriguing and gripping mystery tale.

Praise for Joanna Cannan:

'Brings the equipment of a high-ranking novelist... what is fascinating is to note how, while conforming to all detective-fiction rules, she has developed the 'human situation' to what is (in the detective story) an unusual degree' - Elizabeth Bowen

'Delightfully readable. Has a subtle twist to it which even Mrs. Christie might envy' - New Statesman

Joanna Cannan was born in Oxford in 1898. Prior to writing detective fiction, her books primarily explored the aftermath of World War I and life in England during the Great Depression. In 1932, she settled in rural Oxfordshire with her husband and four children; all four of her children went on to become writers themselves. She began to write fiction for young readers, and published nine books for children between 1936 and 1957. During the same period she wrote two novels featuring Inspector Guy Northeast, They Rang Up the Police (1939) and Death at The Dog (1941); following a nine-year hiatus from detective fiction, she returned to the genre in 1950 with the introduction of Inspector Ronald Price in Murder Included.
