It’s the summer of 1971 and Liz takes care of her four sisters while waiting on the birth of the sixth Murphy child: a boy. And yet something is not right. Adults tensely whisper in small groups, hands shaking. Her younger sister Rose seems more annoying, always flashing her camera and jotting notes in her notepad.
The truth is worse than anyone could imagine: an entire family slaughtered in their home. The small rural town reels in the aftermath. For Liz, these events complicate her already tiring life, and if Rose gets it into her head that she can solve a murder…. The killer must be someone just passing through, a random horror. It almost begs the question: where do murderers live?
A Snake in the Raspberry Patch is Joanne Jackson’s second novel. She lives in Saskatoon with her husband and a border collie named Mick.
