The Case of the Fateful Legacy (Caster & Fleet Mysteries Book 5) Kindle Edition
Not every gift is a blessing…
When Miss Quinton, the Kings’ elderly neighbour at Hazelgrove, dies, no-one is surprised. Katherine and Connie are too busy trying to find a client’s missing family, not to mention having difficulties with their own.
But when the doctor orders a post-mortem, and Miss Quinton’s will delivers several surprises, the duo have no choice but to get involved. It becomes even more urgent when Evangeline King, the chief beneficiary of Miss Quinton’s will, receives a poison-pen letter. And then there is a death even closer to home…
Their personal lives make work harder than ever. While Connie investigates in London her family’s demands increase, and the fuss over Katherine’s first pregnancy creates unexpected obstacles.
Can Katherine and Connie uncover the secrets behind the will and discover what really happened?
The Case of the Fateful Legacy is the fifth book in the Caster & Fleet mystery series, set in 1890s London.

Liz Hedgecock grew up in London, England, did an English degree, and then took forever to start writing. After several years working in the National Health Service, some short stories crept into the world. A few even won prizes. Then the stories started to grow longer...
Now Liz travels between the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries, murdering people. To be fair, she does usually clean up after herself.
Liz’s reimaginings of Sherlock Holmes, her Pippa Parker cozy mystery series, and the Caster & Fleet Victorian mystery series (with Paula Harmon) are available in ebook and paperback.
Liz lives in Cheshire with her husband and two sons, and when she’s not writing or child-wrangling you can usually find her reading, messing about on Twitter, or cooing over stuff in museums and art galleries. That's her story, anyway, and she's sticking to it.
Further info lurks at http://lizhedgecock.wordpress.com. For bite-sized pieces, follow Liz on Twitter at @lizhedgecock.

Paula Harmon was born in north London but her life as a country girl began at eighteen months when the family moved out, trailing slowly westwards from small town to village before settling in South Wales when she was eight.
Her writing life started with “Clanger” fan fiction and making up stories to act out with a kindred spirit. These largely involved flying unicorns. In later Welsh years, she wandered lonely as a … well, lonely person, in woods and streams and wrote about portals to another world and mysterious woodland spirits. But her greatest love was for historical fiction and mysteries and now she's writing her own.
With no clear idea what she wanted to be when she grew up apart from a writer, she graduated from Chichester University (Bishop Otter College) with a BA in English Literature and a vague idea that, after a bit of life experience, if all else failed, she’d become a teacher, even though she had never grown taller than the average ten year old. Whatever else happened, she was determined NOT to become a civil servant like her mother and be able to talk in form numbers.
At her first job interview, she answered “where do you see yourself in 10 years” with “writing” as opposed to “progressing in your company.” She didn’t get that job. She tried teaching and realised the one thing the world did not need was another bad teacher. Somehow or other she subsequently ended up as a civil servant and if you need to know a form number, she is your woman.
Her short stories include dragons, angst ridden teenagers, portals and civil servants (though not all in the same story - yet). Perhaps all the life experience was worth it in the end.
She lives in Dorset with her husband, has two adult children..

- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2019A terrific read. Okay it was more about family and the convoluted lives they had whilst living up to what was expected then the actual murder but what a great read. Loved the havoc the little ones caused in the ordered life of their elders and the resentments that brewed underneath the placid exteriors of many.
They had all descended on James's parents more to get rid of K's Father then anything else as he has been driving the household crazy with his sickbed demands. When a neighbour dies and James's sister turns out to be the main beneficiary things take on a more sinister take. Poison pen letters, poisoned port, stolen goods and an intricate cases of schemes within schemes. Plus Connie is trying to deal with a demanding sister, a nanny that has had to leave to take care of a sick sister and a small tyrant in the nursery. Whilst K is playing matchmaker, trying to get organised for her upcoming birth and coping with a recently poisoned husband. Will they find out what really happened especially after the break in that occurred in their office and most items relating to the case having goes AWOL?

5.0 out of 5 stars A literary success with suspense ,romance, thrills and fun.
I am so enjoying reading this series. I am an avid reader of classics and escapist literature. At last I have found two authors who combine delightful characters, great plots and truly intelligent writing. I am keeping these books to read again one day along with old favourites. Looking forward to the next adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars This series is delightful
This series is delightful. This time Connie and Katherine otherwise known as Caster and Fleet get tangled in an up in a web of Victorian upstairs-downstairs. Miss Quinton dies of natural causes - or does she? Lavender filled pillows and poisoned pen letters are involved in the plot. Enjoy!
