Über dieses E-Book
Foul play is all in the family for a widowed sleuth who’s starting over in work and life in this “charming contemporary mystery in the classic mode” (The Washington Post Book World).
Clara Gamadge used to be half of a detective team with her husband, Henry, but now that he has died, Clara has to fly solo. Her first case alone turns out to be more complex than she had thought. Fifty years ago, her cousin, Ellen, vanished, and her aunt May suddenly died after ignoring a letter advising her to give up the search for Ellen. Now Clara must sort through the muddled facts and try to make sense of two mysteries: a death and a disappearance. Or was it really two deaths?
“Well-plotted and well-written . . . Establishes a crime fiction sleuth to be reckoned with . . . [She’s] a definite charmer.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer
“Very good . . . I hope the wait won’t be too long before we meet again.” —The Boston Globe
“Ancient family skeletons and darling oldsters provide most of the attraction.” —Library Journal
