Sinopse

'Clever, complex and memorable, this is an unputdownable crime thriller. It kept me gripped right up to its pulse-racing final act' B P Walter
1994. Adrian Brown works at the local paper, haunted by his past and with good reason. Eight years ago, he was kidnapped by the Lollipop Man, a shadowy figure linked to three missing Yorkshire children. Adrian was the only one who escaped. Now another child has gone missing in circumstances that chillingly echo those disappearances years ago.
As public fear mounts and the media fans the flames, journalist Sheila Hargreaves, burdened by her past reporting on the abductions, is determined to uncover the truth and finally bring the Lollipop Man to justice.
'An enthralling thriller, deftly executed' Marion Todd
Slow-burn suspense, building to crackling tension and breathless pace - with an incendiary finish' M.K. Murphy
'Swift paced and cleverly plotted...Both shocking and moving' Cath Staincliffe

    Teaming up with local coroner and old friend, Bram Nash, Jo sets out to establish the identity of the girl and solve the riddle of her death. In doing so, she also uncovers her own personal mystery.

    LONGLISTED FOR THE 2016 SCOTIABANK GILLER PRIZE 
    SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2016 KOBO EMERGING WRITER PRIZE 
    Most of the things Pillow really liked to do were obviously morally wrong. He wasn't an idiot; clearly it was wrong to punch people in the face for money. But there had been an art to it, and it had been thrilling and thoughtful for him. The zoo was also evil, a jail for animals who'd committed no crimes, but he just loved it. The way Pillow figured it, love wasn't about goodness, it wasn't about being right, loving the very best person, having the most ethical fun. Love was about being alone and making some decisions. 
    Pillow loves animals. Especially the exotic ones. Which is why he chooses the zoo for the drug runs he does as a low-level enforcer for a crime syndicate run by André Breton. He doesn't love his life of crime, but he isn't cut out for much else, what with all the punches to the head he took as a professional boxer. And now that he's accidentally but sort of happily knocked up his neighbor, he wants to get out and go straight. But first there's the matter of some stolen coins, possibly in the possession of George Bataille, which leads Pillow on a bizarre caper that involves kidnapping a morphine-addled Antonin Artaud, some corrupt cops, a heavy dose of Surrealism, and a quest to see some giraffes.

    Another murder in town is just . . . APAWLING! 
     
     
     
    Just when Ruby finally gets her boyfriend Chief Jon Miller back, and utters the dreaded "L" word, a bank robbery steals away his chance to reply. Ruby handles the situation in her usual, inimitable style, only to find yet another distraction: Murder. 
     
     
     
    It's "Fame Over" when a reality TV starlet turns up dead in a dumpster. 
     
     
     
    Ruby has her hands full trying to juggle the many suspects and twisty clues, let alone getting Jon to 'fess up about his feelings. Of course, Ruby doesn't have to charge into the mystery alone. Her trusted feline familiar, the perpetually snarky and habitually mouthy Rumpus is on the case as well. 
     
     
     
    Ruby tangles with mobsters, celebrities, hardened criminals, hitmen, and—perhaps the most dreaded of all—the modern publishing industry as she juggles the investigation, her relationship with Jon, and the stress of being a fledgling mystery writer. 
     
     
     
    Return to Fiddler's Cove with Ruby Diamond and her cast of characters, where a cat-tastrophe is waiting around every corner and magic and mystery make for a wonderful cozy mystery series. 
     
     
     
    Because navigating middle age has never been so much fun . . . or so dangerous.
