490 0 Beryl and Edwina mystery
520 As friends, the boisterous and brash American Beryl
couldn't be less alike than the prim and proper British
Edwina. But as sleuths in an England recovering from the
Great War, they're the perfect match. 1920: Flying in the
face of convention, legendary American adventuress Beryl
Helliwell never fails to surprise and shock. The last
thing her adoring public would expect is that she craves
some peace and quiet. The humdrum hamlet of Walmsley Parva
in the English countryside seems just the ticket. And,
honestly, until America comes to its senses and repeals
Prohibition, Beryl has no intention of returning stateside
and subjecting herself to bathtub gin. For over three
decades, Edwina Davenport has lived comfortably in
Walmsley Parva, but the post-World War I bust has left her
in dire financial straits and forced her to advertise for
a lodger. When her long-lost school chum Beryl arrives on
her doorstep-actually crashes into it in her red motorcar-
Edwina welcomes her old friend as her new roommate. But
her idyllic hometown has a hidden sinister side, and when
the two friends are drawn in, they decide to set up shop
as private inquiry agents, helping Edwina to make ends
meet and satisfying Beryl's thirst for adventure. Now this
odd couple will need to put their heads together to catch
a killer-before this sleepy English village becomes their
final resting place.
