Murder at the Mikado (A Drew Farthering Mystery)

By Julianna Deering (DeAnna Julie Dodson)

Description:

British High Style Meets Old-Fashioned Detective Work in This Witty SeriesJust as Drew Farthering thinks his life has found smooth waters, Fleur Landis, an old flame, reappears in his life. She's married now, no longer an actress, and he expects she'll soon disappear--until she comes to him in dire need. The lead actor in her old troupe's production of The Mikado has been murdered, and Fleur is the police's number one suspect. Drew would love nothing more than to just focus on his fiance, Madeline, and their upcoming wedding, but he can't leave Fleur in the lurch--even if she did break his heart once. As Drew, Nick, and Madeline dive into the murder, they discover more going on behind the scenes of the theater troupe than could ever have been imagined. Nearly everyone had a motive, and alibis are few and far between. It's Drew's most complicated case yet.

Why the author wrote this book:

I wanted to continue Drew and Madeline's adventure and throw a spanner in the works when it came to their wedding plans. What better than the unexpected reappearance of an old flame?
