I Met Murder

Virginia and Felix Freer series #5 They are one-of-a-kind detective team, a duo once married to each other, but at the moment, just good friends. Last seen in *Death of a Minor Character*, now the endearingly mischievous and charming Felix Freer once again joins forces with his no-nonsense ex-wife Virginia to tackle their most puzzling and entertaining mystery yet. It all begins when Virginia's amiable, wealthy neighbor Ann Brightwell--in spite of the decided reluctance of her husband Hubert--invites her young cousin for a stay. The seventeen-year-old Holly Noble has just lost her mother, a famous actress, and Ann's heart goes out to the poor child. With the help of Virginia and Clyde Crendon, the famous mystery writer, Ann does her best to make Holly feel welcome. At first glance, the girl seems grateful for the invitation and anxious to fit in. But there is something unsettling about Holly's behavior, particularly regarding Felix, who is staying with Virginia while recuperating from a broken leg. But what connection could there possibly be? Of course there was that business of the girl's having been arrested for drug possession, and Felix has certainly been known to keep company with some rather shady characters. But that's all in the past, isn't it? Then, shortly after her arrival, Holly disappears, the apparent victim of a kidnapping--news which seems particularly distressing to Clyde Crendon. Odd that he should be so concerned. After all, he hardly knew the girl. As the plot deliciously thickens--including the unfortunate discovery of a body--it becomes clear to Virginia that Felix may be withholding some vital information. But, as usual, Felix isn't talking...just yet.
