Yule Be Sorry

A Christmas Cozy Mystery (With Dragons)

Beschreibung

A festive tale of kidnapping, explosions, & stolen turkeys.... One should never meddle in the affairs of dragons, but someone has been doing just that. They've been making imitation dragon scale baubles that are nothing short of lethal, and kidnapping delivery drivers all over the Yorkshire Dales. They've also been leaving behind some distinctly dragon-ish traces. Beaufort Scales, High Lord of the Cloverly Dragons, is hot on the trail - or would be, if he wasn't having certain political problems at home. That leaves Alice and Miriam to track down the real culprits, rescue the hostages, and salvage Mortimer's bauble reputation, all while misleading the police regarding the of existence of dragons, and hopefully without being blown up by unexpectedly aggressive Christmas decorations in the process. Luckily they have the full resources of the Toot Hansell Women's Institute at their disposal. They'll need it. And then there's the small question of who stole all the Christmas turkeys… Dragons, the Women's Institute, and one very suspicious cat. What could possibly go wrong? Yule Be Sorry is the perfect Christmas cozy mystery for anyone who likes their crime funny, dragonish, and full of cake and friendship. This is Book 2 of the Beaufort Scales Cozy Mysteries - check out Baking Bad for how it all started!

Autor

I'm Kim, and I write funny, magical books that offer an escape hatch from the serious stuff in the world and leave you smiling. They're about tea-drinking dragons solving mysteries in sleepy Yorkshire villages, and baking-obsessed reapers setting up baby ghoul petting cafes, and ladies of a certain age joining the Apocalypse on their Vespas. They're about friendship, and loyalty, and lifting each other up, and will let you step outside of life as we know it for a little. Most of all, they'll remind you that life, and people (of all sorts of descriptions) can be very wonderful indeed. Originally from New Zealand, I've lived and worked in various (usually warm) countries around Europe, the Pacific and the Caribbean. I've been writing since before I could do joined-up letters, and with any luck my stories have improved, even if my handwriting has actually become worse. Seriously, it's like secret code. I currently live in France with my very understanding SO and the Little Furry Muse (Layla), who inspires the ruder cats in my stories. I read a lot, write a lot, and consume far too much tea and cake to be healthy.
