Admiral Charles Shackleford and his much put upon best friend and former Master At Arms Jimmy Noon have achieved local celebrity status since becoming Dartmouth's answer to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, although it could arguably be said that they couldn't have achieved such heady heights without the able assistance of their other halves, Mabel and Emily. And of course Pickles, the springer spaniel... When Mabel wins a competition for four to stay in a lighthouse on the north Devon coast a week before Christmas, the Admiral is less than enthusiastic. However, as long as Pickles is allowed to come too, he bows to the inevitable and reluctantly agrees to make up a foursome with Jimmy and Emily. With the weather cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey and the steep stairs threatening to give at least one of them a coronary, the Admiral doesn't anticipate they'll be staying more than one night anyway. Until he discovers that a young girl jumped to her death from the very same lighthouse only a couple of weeks earlier. A young girl whose mother has been missing for five years... The Admiral promptly decides that fate has sent them to uncover the truth. But this time they're against the clock, and five days isn't nearly enough time to get to the bottom of the mystery. Operation Lighthouse may well be the first case they can't crack... This humorous cozy mystery is the third in The Admiral Shackleford Mysteries, but can be read as a standalone.
