Bad Blood

Rafferty & Llewelly Cozy Mystery Series #7British Detective Series

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

For Readers of cozy mysteries, humorous mysteries and police procedurals.

A robbery gone wrong, Detective Joe Rafferty thought, when the latest murder victim, wealthy widow, Clara Mortimer was found battered to death in her home. Then Rafferty learned she wasn’t a widow at all – and her estranged husband was living in the same block under a false name.

But that's not the only suspicious aspect of the case: Clara Mortimer's family add another complication, not eased either by their several deceptions or by the difficulties in Rafferty's personal life, which, as always, seems to be guided by a malign fate and take his eye off the investigatory ball. But could he help it if his automatic reaction when his live-in girlfriend Abra said she might be pregnant, wasn't exactly New Man?

Their investigation brings Rafferty and Llewellyn face to face with just how down and dirty families can be... and not just the families of murder victims.
