Beschreibung

All five books in 'Triple Threat Mysteries', a series of cozy mystery novels by Tyler Colins, now in one volume!

The Connecticut Corpse Caper: A week-long stay in a creepy oversize Connecticut mansion is replete with hidden passageways, disappearing and reappearing corpses, and seven quirky inheritance recipients. Soon, people start dropping like flies. Donning amateur sleuth caps, Jill and her associates, Rey and Linda, attempt to solve the mystifying murders. Soon, others jump in, and the bumbling, stumbling and mayhem begin.

Can You Hula Like Hilo Hattie?: The novice sleuths accept their first official detecting assignment: uncovering the “secret" of an elderly millionaire’s pretty young wife. If they succeed, their newly founded business, The Triple Threat Investigation Agency, will prove a viable venture. But after the wife is found murdered along the sapphire shores of Oahu, the sleuths discover that the deceased woman was not the only one keeping secrets. But who is the murderer?

Coco's Nuts: The Triple Threat Investigation Agency private eyes undertake their second major assignment: proving their client, once-socialite-Vassar-grad-turned-trucker Buddy Feuer, isn’t responsible for two murders. She had no motive to kill her boss, infamous entrepreneur Jimmy Picolo, nor did she murder her best friend, Eb Stretta. As the rookie P.I.s strive to uncover a killer amid yet another cast of curious and unconventional characters, they meet up with old acquaintances who may or may not have their best interests at heart.

Forever Poi: The ever-proud owners of the Triple Threat Investigation Agency—JJ, Rey, and Linda—have a new case. Who set ablaze two happening Chinatown art galleries, leaving a couple of charcoal-broiled corpses in the rubble? Any number of curious characters in the local art world could be responsible, including a haughty gallery owner with a questionable past and an art consultant living on the edge. If only the gals can figure out the "why", they'll have their "who".

Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha: The pretty P.I.s from the Triple Threat Investigation Agency have a new case, thanks to a serial killer who has taken a serious interest in them. The GrimReaperPeeper has challenged them to “play the game”, by his rules. Rules are made to be broken, however... or, at the very least, changed. As the trio attempts to determine who he killer might be, they also need to tackle a couple of other cases, including verifying whether a hubby has a roving eye and ascertaining who is stalking a young, beautiful woman. But can the cases be somehow intertwined?

The Makeweight

Philip Davison

Jack Hinkley, the underachieving MI6 Station Head in Barcelona, is tired of watching the cable-car ply between the harbour and Montjuïc from his office window. But when a hijacked plane is forced to refuel at Barcelona, where it is successfully stormed, among the surviving passengers seen disembarking live on shaky long-focus television lenses are two KGB agents of interest. The natural order of things in the shadow world is suddenly out of kilter.
So begins a run of close surveillance, kidnapping and coercion that ultimately leads to a hunt for a mole in London. Once again, our man, Jack, finds himself marginalised. Instead of sinking in the toxic inertia, he uses the time to help his brother get back on track, and to rebuild his relationship with his estranged wife. Then, in a street of cramped houses in Chelsea, somebody fires a shot at him. In the shadow world, lessons are learnt late – sometimes, too late.
The Makeweight is a remarkable spy thriller from the 1980s, which will resonate with a new generation of readers, by a writer described by the Independent as "part le Carré, part Graham Greene".
