Police are describing the death of Ngaire McKenzie, whose body was found at a Waipukurau property last Saturday, as "incredibly tragic".
A homicide investigation was launched after Ms McKenzie, 61, and Murray Daley, 59, were found dead at a one-storey home on Jellicoe St.
Police have completed their inquiries into the deaths and Hawke's Bay CIB Detective Senior Sergeant Martin James said the investigation team were confident they had a clear understanding of the circumstances surrounding the death of Ms McKenzie.
Mr James described it as "incredibly tragic".
On Tuesday a family spokesman said Ms McKenzie's family, including her daughters, were at the house and not in a position to provide comment to the media.
