The Lollipop Lady

di Ivy Carrow (Autore)

Coralia Publishing, 2026

Nobody notices the lollipop lady. That's rather the point of her. For nineteen years, Maureen Tranter has stood at the bottom of School Lane in a hi-vis tabard, stopping traffic for the children of Sandhaven, a faded seaside town that the tide, and the rest of England, has quietly given up on. She is invisible. She prefers it that way. It means she sees everything. So when she finds Daniel Pryce, once a gap-toothed boy who held her hand across the road, now an ambitious young councillor, laid out dead between the white lines one foggy Tuesday, she knows three things the police don't. The road was empty at quarter past eight. Daniel was alive at twenty to nine. And a body does not arrange itself neatly on a zebra crossing. It was no hit-and-run. Someone put him there. And the only witness anyone will believe is a teenage boy too frightened to speak. As Mo follows the threads, a seafront the developers want to bury, a marriage gone cold, and an old accident at her own crossing that the town has spent twenty years not talking about, she discovers that being overlooked is the sharpest weapon she owns. A sharp, funny, quietly devastating standalone British crime novel.
