Описание: A Cotswolds village, a grieving heroine, two furry sidekicks . . . and a murder

When tragedy strikes Leta Parkers life, the successful banker and closet sleuth chases a lifelong dream to retire to England. Leaving her friends and neighbors in Atlanta, she settles into the village of Astonbury with her talkative dog and cat, Dickens and Christie.

Picture her driving a refurbished London taxi to the bookshop and the tearoom, enjoying walks with Dickens the dog, and sipping tea in the garden with Christie, her sassy cat.

Stumbling across the dead body of a friend awakens Letas inner Nancy Drew, and before you know it, shes enlisted the help of Wendy, a retired English teacher friend-and even Wendys elderly mum.

Two whipsmart retirees, one spunky senior citizen, and a feisty dog and cat are on the case

Who better to unearth clues from their friends in the village? Even Dickens and Christie get in on the act gathering intelligence from their four-legged friends and pointing out the obvious to Leta.

What do authors A.A. Milne, Arthur Conan Doyle, and J.M. Barrie have to do with all this?

Is their connection with the Cotswolds merely an interesting bit of trivia, or is it more? Will Leta and Wendy let their literary noses lead them astray?

Youll be captivated as this unlikely team chases clues and ferrets out a long-buried secret-a scenario that would make any BBC cozy mystery producer proud. No matter the clues uncovered by Detectives Dickens and Christie, youll be hard-pressed to guess who the villain is unless, like Leta, youre able to talk to the animals.

What readers are saying:

A perfect read for anglophiles, animal lovers, and mystery lovers...who love a good twist. The J.M. Barrie backstory is so intriguing

For fans of Murder She Wrote, Dr. Doolittle and the game Clue . . . weaves] book history into contemporary situations while adding a touch of whimsical what-ifs.

Lots of literary references and full-throated characters make for a wonderful story.

For anyone who loves a cozy mystery with more meat and very little fluff . . . Characters you would like for friends, cats and dogs that speak (dont they all?), and are well-spoken . . . the mystery . . . kept me guessing to the end. Im off to read book 2, and then languish until book 3 comes out.

As a book fan from way back, ie a time when Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan were familiar parts of my nightly routine, it was intriguing to see . . . J. M. Barrie, in particular, an integral part of the plot.

The characters and the mystery are well written and fast-paced. As I own two Great Pyrenees and have had four previous Pyrs, this book was extra special to me.
