A Treacherous Tale : The Cambridge Bookshop Series by Elizabeth Penney


Molly is working in a book shop in England and loves the children's book:  The Strawberry Girls.  They are reissuing it in a new edition.

St. Martin's Paperbacks and Edelweiss let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be  published on August 23rd.

The author lives close so Molly and her Aunt Violet go to meet Iona and ask her to do a reading.  She's not there when they arrive but they make a dreadful discovery.  A man is dead.  It looks like he fell from the roof which is being rethatched.

Not only is he dead, but Polly, the older daughter is missing.

Molly is trying o find out what happened when the police take Iona to jail.  That increases the effort.

Will she find the killer?
