The image of the book cover for It Takes a Town ... to Solve a Murder by Aoife Clifford is a white background with a red border, the main title in large red lettering, and the subtitle (... to Solve a Murder) in smaller black lettering, followed by the author's name at the bottom. Spread around the outside edges are green "blobs" for want of a better word that contain small tableau's - a woman standing at the top of the stairs, a figure seen through a caravan window, a shot of a tower and and trees, a woman standing in front of a window, her hand on a Venetian blind cord, and a man in a hat, with his dog, standing beside water.
.... To Solve a Murder

So many people had reason to hate her, but did anyone have reason to kill her?
 
Everyone dies famous in a country town, but glamorous Vanessa Walton was a shining star. A celebrity since a television commercial when she was a child, Vanessa is back on the front page for all the wrong reasons; after a terrible storm she has been found dead at the bottom of her stairs.
 
At first her death seems to be a simple accident, but anonymous letters are discovered that suggest otherwise – and when 16-year-old Jasmine Landridge claims it is murder, she suddenly disappears. As the police begin to investigate, secrets are exposed and friendships unravel. 
 
What happens to a community when murders and abductions sit alongside petty workmates, teenage tribulations and longstanding friendships? It will take a town to solve this crime, but what will be broken in the effort to piece together the truth?
