The Sodden Spectators [eKönyv: epub, mobi]

A classic mystery in Agatha Christie style. A story of kidnapping gone wrong...or maybe right. A tale of superstition and treasure, tempered by a dead cat. Prize-winning author, Joslyn Chase, delivers on three delightful stories.   The Sodden Spectators   Mystery novelist Cathryn Harcourt never met a mystery she couldn't solve...in the pages of her own books. Faced with a real-life puzzle on which hangs the happiness of two young lovers, can she find a solution before they're forced apart?   And when the stakes rise higher than anyone imagined, can she outsmart a wily, unsuspected murderer?   Join Cathryn as she travels from Kentucky to Brazil on the tracks of a clever killer.   A Simple Glass of Water   Who knew a simple glass of water could hold so much?   And that it could change from half empty to half full in the course of a day.   It carried the seeds of Ruben's destruction, turned his world upside down, and drowned him in despair.   Might it also offer the key to his salvation?   Blessings and Curses on a Calico Cat   If curiosity killed the cat, it sat behind the wheel of a white Chrysler LeBaron the day Mrs. Friskers died.   A young woman, raised on a diet of superstition, struggles to chop away the apron strings and prove her worth to a persnickety, white-gloved mama.   The loss of her mouse-killing cat makes the battle twice as hard. And twice as lonely.   A humorous and heart-warming story of a young woman learning to stand on her own.
