The Vanishing Convertible: A Dorothy Lundegaard Mystery
About this ebook
Dorothy Lundegaard hopes that 1938 will mean more success for her and her brother and their struggling Lundegaard Investigations. At least enough success to make her a full-fledged partner in the business.
But their first job in the new year presents quite a conundrum. A case of theft that the police deem not a crime. An expensive new car, a Cadillac series 65 convertible, mysteriously vanishes, then reappears just where it belonged. Clean, full of gas, but with extra miles on the odometer.
But who would steal such a valuable car then return it two days later? For that matter, who would choose the coldest January night with temperatures well below zero to steal a convertible?
And what if the police are only half right? It might not be theft, but there just might have been a crime. One that only the Lundegaards working together can uncover.
"The Vanishing Convertible," a short story in the continuing Dorothy Lundegaard Mysteries.
About the author
Cate Martin loves to mix mysteries and magic. And she does it a lot. Like in all three of her witch mystery novels series: The Witches Three Cozy Mysteries, The Viking Witch Cozy Mysteries and The Weal and Woe Bookshop Witch Mysteries. She also loves to mix mysteries and history. Whether that’s 1930s St. Paul, Minnesota like in her Dorothy Lundegaard P.I. short fiction series, or whether it’s ninth century Norway like in her Ljota and Kiallakr short fiction series. She even loves her mystery straight up, no chaser, like much of her fiction which has appeared in the quarterly magazine Mystery, Crime and Mayhem. And her alter ego Kate MacLeod has even been known to mix mystery with her science fiction. You can learn more about her work at CateMartin.com and at RatatoskrPressBooks.com.
