Produktbeschreibung

Penrose and Pyke must put aside their own problems in a race against the clock to rescue an abducted infant.

When private detective Charlie Penrose Pyke is asked to investigate a child abduction, his instinct is to refuse. As their first wedding anniversary approaches, Charlie fears for the fragile state of his wife, Grace, for whom this heart-breaking case could be the final straw. But how can he let the desperate parents down, when they have struggled for years to conceive only to have their baby snatched away? Besides, Charlie is their only hope, because the ransom note threatens their precious son's life if they contact the police.

A family torn apart, a case taking fresh twists and turns by the hour, and only four days to identify the abductor. Could it possibly get any worse? And then, the unthinkable happens.

The Penrose & Pyke Mystery series is set during a remarkable period of social upheaval in 1890s New Zealand.

Autorenporträt

Rose Pascoe writes historical mysteries with a dash of romance, when she isn't plotting real-life adventures.

She lives in beautiful New Zealand, land of beaches and mountains, where long walks provide the perfect conditions for dreaming up plots and fickle weather provides the incentive to sit down and actually write the darn things.

After a career in health, justice and social research, her passion is for stories set against a backdrop of social revolution. Her heroines are ordinary women, who meet the challenges thrown at them with determination, ingenuity, courage, and humour.
