(2026)(Book 16 in the Heathcliff Lennox series)
A novel by Karen Baugh Menuhin
The Mystery of the Missing Man
Murder, mystery and a dog of distinction.
Heathcliff Lennox investigates.
Summer 1924. Seven archaeologists board the morning train from Oxford to witness the Roman villa excavation at Ashton Steeple. Only six arrive.
Dr Mortimer Quayle was seen settling into his compartment with his leather case. The conductor punched his ticket. Witnesses claimed to have seen him. But somewhere during the thirty-mile journey through the peaceful Cotswold countryside, Dr. Quayle vanished without a trace.
How does a man disappear from a moving train?
What begins as a strange puzzle becomes something far deadlier. Someone among the respectable scholars committed murder–but who would kill such a distinguished man, and what secret was worth killing for?
In a world of buried artefacts and ancient mysteries, Lennox and Swift must uncover which team member has buried their past as carefully as any Roman treasure.
Major Heathcliff Lennox - ex WW1 war pilot, 6feet 3inch, tousled dark blond hair, age around 30 – named after the hero of Wuthering Heights by his romantically minded mother – much to his great annoyance.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
