An unexpected inheritance. Missing bequests. Can these amateur detectives pen a satisfactory solution to a literary murder?



Leta Parker is both saddened and happy. Though the second anniversary of her husband's sudden death makes her wistful, her revitalized life in the Cotswolds and a long-distance boyfriend have brought her joy. But when her beau visits for a literature festival, she finds herself immersed in a book collector's suspicious demise . . .



Though she's thrilled to once again team up with the Little Old Ladies' Detective Agency and her precocious pets to crack the case, Leta fears her new love will worry about the danger. And with anomalies at the scene and the police not ready to declare a homicide, the clever sleuth may be following the clues to a dead ending.



With the game afoot, can Leta and the crew arrive at the truth?
