Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 240pp. ISBN: 0312981457 Publisher: St. Martin's Press Pub. Date: March 2002 From the Publisher Ever since the death of his father, poor Fellworth Dolphin has slaved away as a waiter to support his miserly, cold-hearted mother. When his mother suddenly dies, Fellworth is shocked to discover that she has left him a sizable inheritance. Confused, Fell teams up with Maggie, a plain girl with a similar background, to investigate the source of the riches. But what they find is a closet full of skeletons.... Is it really possible Fell's father was involved in a long-ago train robbery? Who's the mysterious woman in the portrait hidden in his mother's wardrobe? As Maggie and Fell poke around the village for answers, they find themselves on a surprise-filled path to danger and adventure, and-just possibly-love. But Fell's sudden good fortune could come to an abrupt end if he doesn't stay one step ahead of a cunning killer... Author Biography: M.C. Beaton, Scottish-born author of the highly successful Agatha Raisin novels and Hamish Macbeth series, lives in a village in the English Cotswolds
