Pin It On A Dead Man : A Dorothea Montgomery Mystery

In 1926 even the small Canadian town of Willowsdown is caught up in the world's Pharaoh frenzy. When Dorothea Montgomery's sister makes the trek from England to visit, she brings with her a rare jewel encrusted beetle pin excavated from an Egyptian archaeological dig. At a community Christmas party the good folk of Willowsdown admire the pin in all its exotic splendour but by the end of the evening it has disappeared. The painful task of viewing neighbours as theft suspects is intensifed when the town's disliked funeral director is discovered dead in one of his own coffins. Dorothea's discriminating eye for detail and her depth of understanding of human nature make her notably qualified to sort out theft and murder.Filled with unique and endearing characters and the flavour of a 1920's small town this "gentle reader" story will engage your imagination as your intellect is stimulated by the twists in the puzzle to unearth the beetle and to pin the funeral director's death on the right person.
