Selina Lawrence

In the novel A Murder is Announced, Selina Lawrence is a woman living in or near Chipping Cleghorn. She is advertising in the Chipping Cleghorn Gazette, looking for a new cook. Mrs Swettenham thought it was unlikely that she would find a cook, since she hadn’t put her address in the advert but only her box number. These days servants insist on knowing the address before they accept a job.
