Death of a Perfect Mother (aka Mother's Boys)
Death of a Perfect Mother - aka Mother's Boys Author:Robert Barnard Lill Hodsden was a monster. She rode roughshod over her daughter, wiped her feet on her husband, blackmailed her lovers and smothered her sons with a mother love that left them screaming out for freedom. Lill set the hackles rising all over Todmarsh. She was just asking to be done in.
Lill Hodsden had a lack of morals. Her mother was mad at her. Her steady lover was sick of being blackmailed. Her neighbors wanted to get even with her. Her daughter's boyfriend would do anything to stop her from reporting him to immigration authorities. Her son wanted to put an end to her overbearing ways. The townspeople wanted to give the killer a metal so Chief Insp. McHale was stumped.
Another great Bernard mystery.
