The Case Of The Lincoln Imp
(2016)(The first book in the Small Town Murder Bureau series)
A novel by Issy Brooke
Three academics, two sleuths, one imp...
Historical facts and local Lincolnshire legends collide when a respected researcher into mediaeval myth is found dead.
It looks like a tragic accident until an anonymous client contacts Bill Travis's new private detective agency. Unfortunately, his strengths lie in graphs and data and brute force, not tact and diplomacy. He needs someone with better people skills.
Someone like Penny May. She agrees to take time out of her growing arts and crafts business to help Bill out. She's warm, friendly and has a way of getting people to talk.
Usually.
But peeling back the layers of secrets proves to be hard, and hunting for a killer is even harder when you can't believe the evidence of your own eyes...
This is a quiet and gently-paced novel; it's clean, sweet and suitable for all readers. Welcome to the warm community of Lincoln, England. Expect lots of cups of tea.
No cliffhanger. The Small Town Murder Bureau books can be read in any order. These books follow the characters first introduced in the "Some Very English Murders" series, but you don't have to have read them to enjoy this book.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
