Margaret, 'Dimpy' Gruar resides in the Mountain View Residential Manor at Kinross, a small town in the north of Tasmania. In A Deadly Manor, the second in the Dimpy Gruar mystery series, Dimpy discovers the body of a naked man floating in their brand new swimming pool. An autopsy reveals he not only drowned but had been bitten by a snake.
The death and near death of two more residents of the Manor by snake bite has Dimpy on high alert. Why have snakes begun to appear in and around the Manor? Why has her neighbour, Professor Green, become a recluse? Is a friend's daughter abusing her mother? On a day trip up the mountain to the Devil's Gullet, had the car brakes been tampered with? As well as solving the snake and brake mysteries, Dimpy is devastated when a deliberately lit fire destroys her apartment.
It's obvious someone is attempting to murder her, but who, and why.
