A Little Laughter. A Little Mayhem. A Little MURDER...
For Readers who like Detective Series with a bit of humour
MURDER VICTIM ADRIENNE Staveley had a husband, a stepson, and several lovers. And while other men liked her too much, British Detective Joe Rafferty discovered her own menfolk had reasons not to like her very much at all. And as for her female in-laws—the less said about them the better.
*
RAFFERTY AND HIS PARTNER, Dafyd Llewelyn, had to sort through Adrienne's tangled love life to find just who had left her murdered – strangled – on her kitchen floor. The seldom considerate fates had ensured Rafferty had suspects in plenty and motives too numerous to mention. The only thing he and his partner lacked was proof against any one of them.
*
AND JOE RAFFERTY'S wedding day was fast-approaching. Would he manage to solve the case and get off on his honeymoon? Or would the fates ensure he had to cancel and get in his bride, Abra's, bad books from the very start?
*
THINGS ARE NOT LOOKING good for Rafferty on any front. Then they get even worse when he discovers fingerprints in the murder house that shouldn't have been there.
Reviews
‘'This is a solid British procedural with strong characters, realistic depiction of police work, and wry humor.' BOOKLIST Barbara Bibel (refers to the original Paperback edition)
'This is a fast-moving, skilfully-written tale, told with lots of humour, plenty of twists and turns and a convincing ending. The author, who has a well-deserved reputation for clever crime fiction that keeps the reader guessing until the end, will certainly not disappoint with her latest novel. I recommend it very highly.'

‘The plot was compelling, and the interplay between Rafferty and his fiancée Abra has taken on a life of its own. You'll find the character development fun and evolving.’ READER REVIEWER
