Death by Candlelight
(2023)(The third book in the Hettie & Ceefer Mystery series)
A novel by Rennae Todd
Murder, fraud and secrets. A cat-astrophic combination.
Hettie Parke is pleased and relieved when her mother’s charity auction at the Sunny Vale Community Centre gets off to a great start. Until a body turns up, and tragic as that is, Hettie is just relieved that the death has nothing to do with her or her family. Or at least it hadn’t, until the dead man becomes linked to rumours that her grandfather’s legacy was acquired by fraud.
Hettie’s dream of expanding her croquet courts is in tatters, and now her mother is pressuring her to solve the murder and redeem the Parke name. How can she refuse if it will help mend their relationship? And while the police are only interested in apprehending the killer Hettie’s investigation delves greater depths. But is it in the right direction?
With the killer hustling to cover their tracks it’s up to Ceefer to reveal their identity before they kill again. But will he be in time?
