Kensington Trade Paperback November 26, 2019
The week between Christmas and New Years finds mystery bookshop owner and aspiring mystery writer, Samantha Washington on a bus trip to Chicago with her grandmother, Nana Jo and their friends from the Shady Acres retirement village. After a weekend of theatre, shopping and fine dining, one of the group’s members is murdered on the return trip. Can Samantha follow the trail to uncover a murderer before her ticket is up?
Samantha continues to write British historic cozy mysteries set in 1938. In her latest book, Lady Elizabeth Marsh and her niece, Lady Penelope Carlston, are in London to take advantage of the Boxing Day sales when they encounter an acquaintance. Unfortunately, neither lady remembers the woman. The old dear has wandered away from her companion and seems befuddled, especially when she tells them someone is trying to kill her. Later, she falls onto the tracks of the underground, but before she dies she whispers something to Lady Elizabeth that has complete strangers wandering to the Marsh estate and asking a lot of questions. Is it possible the death wasn’t an accident? Can Lady Elizabeth discover the truth or will she meet an untimely end?
