How do you solve a mystery when you can’t remember the clues?

Elizabeth is missing by Emma Healey

December 2, 2017 by tillie 2 Comments

Maude lives alone. Her carers come by and tell her not to buy anymore food, because she has too many tins of peaches already. She goes to the shops and forgets why she is there and then she buys tinned peaches. She has a daughter and her daughter sighs at her a lot and tells her not to eat so much toast.
