Death of a Rival Sleuth: A Granny Gosling Murder Mystery (Granny Gosling Series)

By Henry Helbog

It's the 1920s: the age of high-hats, flappers, frivolity, whiskey highballs, ostentation and social and political intrigue.

The reigning queen of sleuths and Granny Gosling's arch rival, Vida Vulpino, arrives at the Erskine manor to solve the same crime. Like two cats in an alley that have their eye on the same half-eaten fish, each stiffens at the sight of the other, and the sparks fly.

Flamboyant, vain and theatrical though she is, Miss Vulpino's record as an amateur crime solver is unsurpassed. These are all reasons for Granny Gosling to hate her rival, but not so much that she should want to murder her.

That distinction belongs to an unknown assailant who, in the aftermath, makes the mistake of underestimating Granny Gosling's tenacity in running him to ground.
