Pretty Follies
(2021)(Book 11 in the Stratford Upon Avondale Mystery series)
A novel by Monica Knightley
One murdered man. Two wives. Two families. One pot of exploding marinara sauce.
Sharon Fuller is stunned when she loses her husband to a brutal murder.
But discovering that he had another wife and family living across town—now that’s brutal.
When Thomas Fuller is murdered, there’s no shortage of possible suspects. Starting with his two wives and families. Did a family member know his secret and decide to take matters into their own hands?
Tea room owner and amateur sleuth, Maggie O’Flynn, is shocked when the local homicide detective suddenly asks for her assistance with the case. After all, this is the man who has frequently threatened her with various charges for getting herself involved in past investigations.
While Maggie navigates working with the detective, her best friend and sleuthing sidekick, Gina Mattucci, is finding that preparing to open an Italian restaurant doesn’t come without its own risks. Like exploding marinara sauce. Helping out with the investigation is much more appealing than mopping up herby tomato sauce. With the detective’s wholly unexpected consent, Gina joins Maggie in the search for Thomas Fuller’s killer.
With so many suspects, will they be able to help find the killer—without accidentally provoking the wrath of the detective?
With wonderfully quirky characters, plenty of humor and charm, and copious amounts of tea, the STRATFORD UPON AVONDALE MYSTERIES will delight lovers of cozy mysteries!
