Who killed Granny
Marais?
by Avis MacIntyre
The awful news of
Granny Marais’s untimely demise early in the winter in her very own garden was
received with mixed feelings by her family and neighbours. Some were grief-stricken while others were
silently jubilant, but most shared the same mixed emotions of shock and
bewilderment because she had been murdered and no one had a clue as to how it
had been done. |
