A Little Laughter. A Little Mayhem. A Little MURDER . . .

#12 of 18 in the Rafferty & Llewellyn British Mystery Series

For readers who like Detective mysteries with a bit of humour.

When Detective Inspector Joseph Rafferty visits his local pub for a quick drink, he's looking to forget his troubles, not add to them. His ex-fiancée Abra is still refusing to talk to him, and he's fast losing hope of a reconciliation.

But Rafferty is not destined to enjoy his drink in peace. Because a man is found dead – stabbed in the pub's car park – and a preoccupied Rafferty is to lead the investigation.

What at first appears to be an open and shut case quickly becomes a lot more complex. The witnesses all plead alcohol-induced amnesia, and Rafferty's habitually cautious sidekick, Sergeant Dafyd Llewellyn, isn't helping either—casting doubt on all of Rafferty's conclusions.

And as Rafferty wrestles with the case, he also has to wrestle with Abra's determination to avoid their problems. Soon, he is in despair on both counts…

The twelfth book in the quirky, not quite so Traditional British mystery series.
