A Bumper Year for Dahlias by Alan Downer

In Jersey, 'Centeniers' are elected by their fellow islanders to protect their rights.

They work with the police to ensure justice is done.

Sensitive, stammering Richard Hamon may seem an unlikely choice, but in fact he's the youngest Centenier on the island and might just be the cleverest.

But he needs all his skills to solve the mysterious death of pretty young Vanessa Guillaume.....
