Description

A VALUABLE INHERITANCE, NO SIGN OF THE HEIRS...and a looming deadline. Can the women of the WISE ENQUIRIES AGENCY track down the missing men in time? Or are there good reasons for them not wanting to be found? The sixth book in the series finds the women of the WISE Enquiries Agency looking forward to spending their first Christmas and New Year together as guests of the Duke and Duchess of Chellingworth. They're expecting some memorable festivities - which might owe more to ancient Welsh traditions than mince pies and plum puddings if Dowager Althea has anything to do with it. What they aren't expecting are the worrying twists and turns they encounter while tackling the troubling case of missing triplets and a deepening mystery, and tragedy, associated with a trove of antiques...not to mention the bizarre and disturbing "gifts" being left on the front doorsteps of some very puzzled and perturbed locals. A further complication arises when Duchess Stephanie's parents arrive to support her through the imminent arrival of her first child; did the seemingly squeaky-clean businessman they got involved with on their recent holiday strike a deal with them that was too good to be true? Join our softly poached professional investigators for Christmas and New Year in Wales...and find out!

Author Biography:

Cathy Ace's Cait Morgan Mysteries feature a criminal psychologist sleuth encountering traditional whodunits around the world (optioned for TV); her WISE Enquiries Agency Mysteries feature a quartet of soft-boiled female PIs solving cozy cases from a Welsh stately home. Her Welsh suspense novel, The Wrong Boy, has also been optioned for TV. Shortlisted for Canada's Bony Blithe Award three times, winning once, she's also won IPPY and IBA Awards; her work's also been twice shortlisted for a Crime Writers of Canada Award of Excellence, and the CrimeFictionLover Best Indie Novel. She migrated from Wales aged 40, and now lives in Canada.
