Murder, fraud and secrets. A cat-astrophic combination.
Hettie Parke is at her wit's end. When her mother attempts to link the Parke name with something positive, her efforts sadly fail when someone trips over the body of property developer Carl Dalrymple at her charity auction in the Sunny Vale Community Centre. And has Hettie heard her correctly? Does Callie want her to investigate this death? Apparently, if she can issue orders anyway.
With the murder linked to a claim that her grandfather's land was acquired by fraud, it's hardly a surprise when the police investigation led by that detective considers her family likely suspects. Hettie's afraid her new croquet courts are further out of reach than ever but disappointed as she is, she can hardly consider them a priority right now.
But Hettie is frustrated when her investigation goes astray as she follows the more fanciful ideas on offer from her cousin Frank, and it's especially troublesome when her overly enthusiastic group of elderly sleuths find themselves in danger as a result. So when someone else's life comes under threat it's Ceefer whom Hettie calls on for help.
Can they prevent another death and unmask the killer, or will some suspicions continue to remain a mystery?
Death by Candlelight is the lightly paranormal third book in the Woody Lake Mystery series. If you like cozy mysteries with a strong female character, family dynamics, and an interesting feline companion then you'll love Rennae Todd's cozy cat mystery.
