Discover Amy Rowlings: quick-witted movie buff, avid reader of crime fiction, and amateur sleuth.
August 1939. For decades, local children have feared Creepy Cottage, a derelict house rumored to swallow intruders whole. But after a violent summer storm collapses an end wall, the ruins give up a grim secret: the skeleton of a young woman.
When it's revealed that the local police botched the original 1929 investigation, amateur sleuth Amy Rowlings and Inspector Bodkin team up to reopen a case frozen in time. The trail leads straight to the town's amateur dramatic club and a faded theatre star drenched in scandal.
Relying on a handful of ancient clues and the fading memories of tight-lipped witnesses, Amy and Bodkin must unmask a killer before the looming shadow of war changes everything.
Cold Case at the Cottage is the fifth in the cozy, historical Amy Rowlings Golden Age Mysteries series, which can be read in any order. For fans of Verity Bright, Helena Dixon, and Felicity Penn.
