TAI Ten years ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life. When Hawke left for the NHL and my hockey dreams went up in smoke, I ghosted my best and longest friend. It made sense at the time, but there hasn’t been a day where I haven’t missed him. So when we run into each other again, and his only response is “Do I know you?”, I know I deserve it. But I refuse to let one mistake keep us apart forever. Especially when he has bigger problems, and I’m in a position to help him.

Willkommen in Shaftesbury! Penelope St. James zieht aus London in den kleinen Ort Shaftesbury, um dort eine Partnervermittlungsagentur zu eröffnen. Der Anfang ist schwierig, denn Handyempfang gibt es nur auf dem Friedhof, und ihr neuer Nachbar Sam ist ausgerechnet Tierarzt - mit Tieren kann Penelope nun wirklich nichts anfangen. Als sie mitansehen muss, wie eine Frau überfahren wird, ist sie misstrauisch, denn sie glaubt nicht an einen Unfall.

Showdown in Shaftesbury. Turbulente Zeiten im idyllischen Shaftesbury: Ein Rabe terrorisiert das Dorf, ein Kleptomane scheint von Haus zu Haus zu gehen, und obendrein wird das Anwesen Highgrove Hall von einem abgerissenen Mann gekauft, der aussieht, als hätte man ihn eben aus dem Gefängnis entlassen. Alles Fälle für Penelope St. James meint man im Dorf, weil alle sie für eine verdeckt arbeitende Detektivin halten. Doch der schwierigste Fall erwartet Penelope noch - als sie den neuen und schon unbeliebten Pfarrer tot in der Kirche findet.

Dann wird die erste Leiche gefunden - und Penelope, Shaftesburys Hobbydetektivin, bekommt mehr Arbeit, als ihr lieb sein kann. Cosy Crime vom Feinsten - humorvoll, spannend und höchst unterhaltsam.
