A Murderous Valentine
(2017)(The first book in the Admiral Shackleford Mystery series)
A Novella by Beverley Watts
Admiral Charles Shacklefords retirement isnt going quite according to plan. Having been instrumental in improving the lives of so many (his words others might be inclined to call it something slightly different), he's struggling to reignite the spark in his own love life with the feisty Mabel.
Short on ideas, he decides to gatecrash his much put upon best friend Jimmy Noons Valentine idea and ends up in the middle of a murder mystery weekend where real murder is on someone elses script. As the weather closes in, the guests are stranded in a hotel harbouring an unknown killer. With no possibility of the police arriving any time soon, the Admiral and Jimmy have no option but to join forces in an attempt to uncover the Murderous Valentine. The unstoppable duo may be not quite be Holmes and Watson, but can they catch a murderer ?
This humorous cozy mystery is the first in The Admiral Shackleford Mysteries.
Praise for A Murderous Valentine:
"A thoroughly enjoyable read with great characters and a twist to the story."
"A Murderous Valentine drops straight into the story line. So exciting you cannot put the book down."
"A lovely, relaxing, funny read with shades of Agatha thrown in."
"An easy quick read full of delightful wit."
"Just loved the Admiral's Springer spaniel, Pickles"
Genre: Cozy Mystery
