Sobre este 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

Sobre o autor
Eleanor Boylan has been writing mystery fiction since the 1950s. Her short stories have appeared in Alfred Hitchcock and Ellery Queen’s mystery magazines and in Yankee Magazine. In 1987, she began a series of Clara Gamadge suspense novels that continued the Henry Gamadge novels of her aunt, Elizabeth Daly, published during the 1940s and 1950s. Boylan has also been a professional puppeteer, and her children’s book How to Be a Puppeteer, with illustrations by famed artist Tomie de Paola, went into three printings. Boyland raised her family in Newton, Massachusetts, and moved to Anna Maria Island in Florida in 1985. She has two sons, three daughters, and eleven grandchildren.
