Produktbeschreibung
Daphne Jones loves nothing more than travelling with her husband, John, in Bluebell, their cute restored caravan. Instead of retiring, she started a new career as a celebrant, officiating at weddings, funerals, and all manner of ceremonies. And even a spot of sleuthing... The forest town of Shady Bend is known for its crafts, preserves, and local produce. It is not known for disappearing bodies let alone a mysterious spate of crimes! Daphne came to officiate a funeral for Edwina Drinkwater but in a shocking twist, the deceased vanishes before making it to the grave. The sudden death of a mourner who kept records of other people's indiscretions evokes Daphne's inner sleuth. Was the murder payback? Who has hidden Edwina's remains? Was it the neighbour who wants her land, the disgraced local doctor, or her fiercest competitor in the world of preserves and jams? With judging underway at the local country show, the suspects come together all determined to obtain Edwina's famous secret sauce recipe. But as the body count rises, Daphne is the only person standing between the killer and the truth. The Shadow of Daph is book two in this new cozy series by the author of The Stationmaster's Cottage, where Daphne first appeared as a supporting character.¿
