In Gone with the Win, another charming entry in Mary Daheim's beloved Bed-and-Breakfast series, someone from Judith McMonigle Flynn's past comes knocking, and the reluctant amateur sleuth finds herself working a case so cold it's practically frozen.
Ruby Tooms drops her bags and a mystery on the lovely Persian carpet of Hillside Manor, Judith's bed-and-breakfast in Seattle.
Ruby's mother was strangled years before, soon after her divorce from Ruby's father--and the killer is still at large.
Undaunted, Judith agrees to help Ruby. Cousin Renie grudgingly pitches in, and even Judith's husband, Joe, gets involved.
The game's afoot and ahoof with Judith discovering that the hand she's been dealt includes not only a joker but that deadly card, the Ace of Spades. And, she's off...in pursuit of a killer.
Back Jacket
Innkeeper Judith McMonigle Flynn has vowed to never ever find a dead body again (at least not for a while).
Unfortunately, Ruby Tooms, Judith's latest guest and one-time acquaintance arrives with some unexpected baggage--a cold case she dumps on Hillside Manor's Persian carpet. Ruby wants to know if Judith can use her sleuthing skills to finger a murderer from fifteen years ago.
Judith is about to say no when her husband, Joe Flynn, tells her that the homicide case was his former partner and old pal Woody Price's first murder investigation. Now, the game is afoot, and for once Joe is more than willing to help his wife turn a cold case into a hot chase in pursuit of a long-ago killer.
