Book excerpt: No sooner has Peter Purkiss retired to the little market town of Bolt-in-the-Hole than a member of the local operatic society is found in his garden pond with a knife in her back. Being the obvious suspect, Peter sets out to prove his innocence by solving the crime himself. There seem to be plenty of clues - but which are really clues and which are mere coincidence? There is the distinctive red knife used by the killer; the toy dinosaur in the pond; the strange smell in the opera director's room. Or perhaps the solution is contained in the three enigmatic words on the scrap of paper clasped in the dead woman's hand. And who on earth is the figure in fedora and trench coat seen lurking about the streets of Bolt? The Diva in the Duck Pond is a classic whodunnit with a comic edge.
