Mistletoe and Murder: A Clara Fitzgerald Mystery - The Clara Fitzgerald Mysteries Evelyn James

Clara Fitzgerald was hoping for a quiet Christmas, but when the elderly Miss Sampford sends out a plea for help Brighton's first female private detective can hardly refuse. Miss Sampford believes someone is trying to scare her out of her house. A 'ghost' has her servants handing in their notice and the neighbours talking. Miss Sampford doesn't believe in ghosts anymore than Clara does, but something sinister is occurring in her home in Berkeley Square, London. Clara sets off to investigate, but soon finds she has been beaten to it by Mr Andrews, a self-professed ghost hunter who has been employed by Miss Sampford's nephew, Elijah. To top it all off, Miss Sampford's family descend on her for Christmas, including William Henry Sampford who has every reason to wish his aunt dead. Is the ghost a means for murder? Clara is soon convinced that Miss Sampford's life is very much in danger and when one of the Christmas guests dies under mysterious circumstances she is even more certain the Berkeley Square ghost has murderous intentions. But can she unmask the killer before real harm comes to Miss Sampford? And what secrets are there in the old woman's past that make her a target for a killer? Clara is faced with unraveling the past to save her client, while stopping the ghost from killing again. For more books by Red Raven Publications go to www.facebook.com/RedRavenPublications
