Beschreibung

A society woman’s mysterious death sets off a twisting murder investigation in this 1915 crime novel featuring Inspector Dunbar and Gaston Max.Popular novelist Henry Leroux is working late into the night when a woman in grave distress arrives at his door. Wearing little beneath her fur coat and clearly in need of medical attention, the woman dies before she can explain why she has sought Leroux out. It is a baffling investigation for Scotland Yard’s Inspector Dunbar, one that will draw him into London’s seedy Limehouse district in pursuit of the mysterious criminal mastermind Mr. King. As Dunbar uncovers Mr. King’s nefarious plan to destroy all of London’s high society, he is joined on the case by the legendary detective Gaston Max.

    A guest at the farm takes her final flight and ruffles more feathers for Ivy and her crime-solving dog. 
    After a rocky start, Ivy is finally settling into life at Runaway Farm and Inn. She’s even managed to smooth the feathers of a formerly feisty neighbor. Or has she? Nothing is ever quite as simple as it seems in charming Clover Grove. 
    When the local bridge club arrives for a high stakes visit, Ivy turns up the hospitality to revive the inn’s reputation after two recent murders. What could possibly go wrong with a group of card-playing octogenarians known as pillars of the community? 
    A fox in the henhouse disrupts the plan. Someone is creeping around the farm again, and the Bridge Buddies have barely settled in before one of them gains her heavenly wings. 
    Luckily, Ivy is never alone in a crisis. Keats, the border collie, is eager to apply his sharp brain to this case of murder most fowl, and best friend Jilly always has her back. Even Kellan (AKA Chief Hottie) is softening a little. His change of heart couldn’t be better timed because the evidence could leave Ivy without an egg to stand on. 
    If you like twisty, fast-paced mysteries and heartwarming animal stories, then you’ll love A Streak of Bad Cluck.

    COP KILLER. 
     
     
     
    That's the accusation scrawled on the home of a dead man, found executed in his own bedroom. That's the tawdry headline thrown around every news channel, every social media feed, every conversation taking over Baltimore. 
     
     
     
    That's the name given to a man who may have been innocent, but never had the chance to prove it—and now Malcolm and Seong-Jae must solve his murder. A death that never should have happened; a death on their watch, when legal technicalities tied their hands. 
     
     
     
    But with the paternity test results hanging over his head, Malcolm grows increasingly erratic, threatening to take his mind from a critical case that could tear Baltimore and the BPD apart. With a dead cop, a dead suspect, and the question of what to do about Juliette and Chrysanthe, there are no easy answers. 
     
     
     
    Only with Seong-Jae can Malcolm keep himself together. 
     
     
     
    And only with Seong-Jae will he find the path he needs to tread. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
