Aunt Bessie's X-Ray — Diana Xarissa

Aunt Bessie's X-ray happily doesn't reveal a break.

Bessie Cubbon, Aunt Bessie to nearly everyone, has been walking on Laxey Beach for a great many years. An unfortunate fall sees her visiting the Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital for X-rays.

Aunt Bessie's X-ray necessitates a follow-up visit.

Because of Bessie's age (don't ask) the doctor insists on seeing her again to check her arm. When the receptionist asks Bessie for help, Bessie is intrigued. Kelly Sutton's sister died a year ago in Manchester. The death was ruled an accident, but Kelly thinks Kara was murdered.

Aunt Bessie's X-ray was just the start.

Before long Bessie finds herself caught up in an investigation into a death that may or may not have been accidental. Can she discover what really happened to Kara Sutton? It's been a year, and most of the witnesses are in Manchester. Can Bessie find answers or is Kelly's father right? Is she just being nosy?
