Murder and a Missing Manuscript

Beschreibung

"A dandy mystery with a surprising, twisty plot, strong characterizations, and a village librarian whose sharp memory and no-nonsense demeanor make her an unexpected but invaluable ally to Polly." - Library Journal When American comedy icon and amateur sleuth Polly Pepper stumbles upon a long-lost 19th-century manuscript in her English castle's attic, she dreams of raking in a fortune. But before she can bask in glory, the manuscript vanishes... a famed antique book expert is murdered... and Polly is thrown into a whirlwind of intrigue. With whispers of rivalry and revenge rippling through her quaint village of Abbots Clover, Polly must navigate a trail of clues that winds from the ivy-clad library to the shadowy chambers beneath the local church. Packed with eccentric villagers, razor-sharp humor, and twists that will keep you guessing, Murder and a Missing Manuscript is a delightfully witty and wickedly fun cozy mystery that will leave you laughing and turning pages long into the night!
