“A refreshing, nostalgic whodunit writing style set in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand.”
Fictional book-store owners, Garth and Eloise Sherlock provide a barrel of laughs as they reference familiar tasks and happenings in book store life until a mysterious package is delivered and the accompanying text references their earlier lives as law enforcers in the UK. A deeper layer of creative, curious narrative pieces together an historical cold case of a missing local young lady. Shady community stakeholders are less than impressed the case has arisen and the reader’s suspicions change as new information is revealed. All of these elements fall into place and provide the most satisfying ending…I am now eagerly anticipating a series to follow!
