THE CORPSE ON THE DIKE- Janwillem van de Wetering

























A recluse has been shot between the eyes as he stood looking out his bedroom window.  His neighbour, a school teacher who is a pistol champion, admits she discovered the body and failed to report it.  Is she guilty?

A recommended series.
