Produktbeschreibung

Introducing a fun new murder mystery series, Beaufort's Landing, starring Xelma, an initially unwilling psychic sleuth, who finds herself embroiled in murders, often involving the attractive D.I. Ryan Croft. He is definitely not on board with all her 'hocus-pocus', but man, that Xelma is something out of the box.

Book 1 Escape to Danger. Xelma, who is hiding out under the Witness Protection Program, on the strict proviso that she tell none of her previous contacts where she is. She is sure she can trust Charlie, her twin sister. She has opted to live in a couple of old railway carriages, long ago converted to living quarters, which she inherited from her fortune-telling Grandma Sally. Situated in Queensland's tropics, Balgal Beach is in the Rollingstone District just north of Townsville.

She surprises herself by impulsively rescuing an abused donkey instead of the puppy companion she had planned on. Donkey does not like men, and is not afraid to show it. She, also thinks and acts like a Great Dane, creating much-needed diversions for Xelma.

In her turn, Xelma is adopted by her very nosey neighbour, Roland, a small, elderly Irishman, who stepped back from main-stream living some years ago.

Now, her much-loved sister has been murdered in Townsville, and the smarmy D.I. Croft tells her, she is the number one suspect. With a lot of money at stake, there are any number of other suspects, including Charlie's erstwhile fiancé, her estranged son and his mother, her house-mate and his fiancee, all of whom suspect each other.

To complicate matters, her sister is not yet ready to move on, and keeps turning up in Xelma's dreams, and then in person, er, spirit. If Charlie is trying to help, she is failing.

After being repeatedly ignored and scoffed at, Xelma sets out to solve the murder on her own. Unfortunately, she gets too close, and is attacked. Despite her expertise at Krav Maga, the Israeli art of self-defence, she is in grave danger enter the ever protective Donkey, the heroine of the day.
