Description
She stared into the speckled mirror, wondering how she had come to this. How could she, Holly Love, apple of her parents’ eye, competent manipulator of invoices in Gorgon Office Supplies, have ended up alone and starving in a dead man’s flat? How indeed? Most reluctant heroines would throw in the towel at this point. But Holly Love is made of sterner stuff. She’s sworn to track down the cheating swine who ripped her life apart, and make him pay. But as she tries to keep her head in the face of a bizarre mystery, a gloomy old house, a hearse-driving Elvis impersonator and a gang of vengeful thugs – not to mention a garrulous and possibly possessed parrot – Holly is forced to come to terms with a great truth. However bad things seem, they can always get worse.
Reviews
“This charming series debut by the author of the Verity Birdwood and Tessa Vance mysteries stars an endearing heroine and a dynamic cast of zany characters. Using the classic country house venue of mystery's golden age in a contemporary setting is brilliant and will capture readers' imaginations. A very gentle cozy with a little magic and an open-ended conclusion that begs for a sequel.” --Library Journal
“The prolific Australian author (The Makeover Murders, 1993, etc.) offers the hilarious first in a new series that mixes humor with mystery.” --Kirkus Reviews
“Fans of quirky mysteries and skillful suspense will find much to enjoy.” --Publishers Weekly
