Ergebnis für "Cody" in Historische Krimis

In the fog-shrouded streets of Victorian London, where the gaslight casts long shadows and secrets linger in forgotten corners, Patience Worth is not the demure librarian she appears to be. Behind her practical appearance lies a mind as sharp as Sherlock Holmes himself. When young women begin vanishing without trace, dismissed by authorities as mere runaways, Patience alone notices the pattern.

Small town controversies can be murder. When a newcomer to Erin, Ohio, proposes to tear down the historic Bijou Theater and erect in its place a boutique hotel, Sebastian McCabe adds “civic activist” to a long resume that already includes magician, mystery writer, professor, and amateur sleuth. With the strategic help of brother-in-law Jeff Cody, Mac launches a far-reaching campaign to “Save the Bijou.”

This is the startling question that Jeff Cody and his wife, Lynda, hear during a wedding reception on the first night of the QueenCon mystery conference in Cincinnati. Not only are the whispered words unnerving, there is no one nearby to have spoken them.
