Sharp-eyed former nun Nora Breen is back, as the latest attraction in Gore-on-Sea turns deadly . . .
On a brilliant November morning, Nora finds her customary seaside walk rudely interrupted: she's been summoned, with Detective Inspector Rideout, to the home of Doreen Chimes, Gore-on-Sea's resident medium. Chimes would like to report a robbery - and to personally invite Rideout to that evening's private seance.
It's an invitation he will regret accepting: the evening ends in murder. And in the coming days, each of Rideout's fellow attendees will die. Can Nora figure out who - or what - is behind the deaths before it's too late?

'Nora Breen is an understated genius with wit and guts. She's Maria Von Trapp on steroids. Murder at Gulls Nest is crying out to be a recurring Sunday evening TV drama...sign me up!' Richard Armitage
