Produktbeschreibung

OUR CRIME BUFFS ARE BACK! This time they're hunting for a missing woman-and have just 3 DAYS to do it. THE IMPOSSIBLE MYSTERY: Young Chanel has vanished on her daily walk. Her mother's in a flap and the police are dragging their feet. So the sleuths of last resort step up... THE 'WRONG' SUSPECT: Detectives soon have a man in custody but there's something strange about his story. Luckily for Chanel, 'strange' is just what our amateur detectives live for... THE RIGHT SLEUTHS: Cluedo champ MERRY, fearless reporter FRANKIE, ex-copper EARLE, mystery author MARTIN and renegade PI KILA should all be on cloud nine after their last case, but they're floundering and desperate for a distraction... AND SO THE ADVENTURE BEGINS! This time we're camped at a lux beachside suburb where the coffee's overpriced and the locals suspiciously friendly. Using their collective experience and expertise, the team quickly uncover falsehoods, fresh suspects, and an unexpected corpse. And all while trying to make sense of their own spiralling lives... Is this another case of false first impressions? Or were detectives on the right track all along? With more twists and turns than Nel's walking trail, the follow-up to BLIND MEN DON'T DIAL ZERO is the second in this fun, fast-paced series for lovers of traditional detective mysteries with humour, suspense, friendship and a little romance. A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: This book contains some Aussie slang, a sprinkle of adult language, and twists you will not see coming. You have been warned.

Autorenporträt

Christina (C.A.) Larmer tried writing a romance at the age of 13 but pretty soon she'd bumped off the hero and planted it on the heroine. It was the beginning of a beautiful love affair that has resulted in more than 20 books published across the globe, from Australia to the US, the UK and Canada. Now a hybrid author with publishers in Japan and France, Christina has four crime series (the Murder Mystery Book Club, the Ghostwriter Mysteries, the Sleuths of Last Resort and the Posthumous Mysteries), as well as a thriller-suspense novel and a stand-alone mystery masquerading as a family saga (she's fooling nobody). She has also written a non-fiction book about Papua New Guinea, where she was born.
