A pawn-shop robbery
It's no rest for the wicked as Kate Shackleton picks up her second professional sleuthing case. But exposing the culprit of a pawn-shop robbery turns sinister when her investigation takes her to Harrogate – and murder is only one step behind …
A fatal stabbing
A night at the theatre should have been just what the doctor ordered, until Kate stumbles across a body in the doorway. The knife sticking out of its chest definitely suggests a killer in the theatre's midst.
A ransom demand
Kate likes nothing better than a mystery – and nothing better than solving them. So when a ransom note demands £1,000 for the safe return of the play's leading lady, the refined streets of Harrogate play host to Kate's skills in piecing together clues – and luring criminals out of their lairs…
Hmm I wasn't so sure about this one, it jumps between just post the Great War (when the books are set) and the Boer War, which makes the book rather "choppy", also other than Kate and her assistant Sykes there didn't seem to be anyone you were rooting for! I will stick with reading the series and I hope that the rest are like book one and not like this one!
