Murders at the Winterbottom Women's Institute

Gina Kirkham

Sinossi

It’s a quiet English village—except for one crazed murderer—in this delightful romp by the author of the Constable Mavis Upton series. Librarian Prunella Pearce has left heartbreak behind to start a new life in the village of Winterbottom, where there’s little social life to be had aside from the meetings of The Winterbottom Women’s Institute at the parish hall. But a bit of excitement ensues when the group is about to elect a new president—and the nominees for the position begin dropping like flies. One is found facedown in a lemon drizzle cake, stabbed with a crochet needle. Another nearly dies spectacularly in the revolving doors of a Harrogate hotel. When Pru and her friend Bree agree to do some undercover snooping to help the police, little do they know that one of the Winterbottom women is hiding a scandalous secret . . .

Odell Buckenflush Chronicles 5...

Steve Spencer

The Odell Buckenflush Chronicles 5 is the unforgettable conclusion to Steve Spencer’s beloved series of river adventures, where outdoor education meets laugh-out-loud storytelling. 
Dr. Odell Buckenflush—part myth, part mischief, and entirely unforgettable—returns in a final collection of forty-eight tales that blend canoeing escapades, survival lessons, family misadventures, and tongue-in-cheek philosophy. From battling sudden floods in the Ozarks to surviving paddling mishaps that turn into life lessons, these chronicles remind us that the river is both a teacher and a trickster. 
With every story followed by a reflective “Tale of the Tale,” readers see how real experiences inspired the adventures, making this book both educational and entertaining (edutainment) for paddlers, outdoor enthusiasts, camp leaders, and anyone who enjoys a good laugh about the unpredictability of nature—and human nature. 
This volume also features a Glossary of River Terms (both accurate and comically reimagined), plus appendices linking places, themes, and recurring Buckenflush characters across the series.
