Heartless (A Lady Marmalade Mystery Short Story Book 3) Kindle Edition

3.9 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

Heartless is Lady Marmalade's third mystery.

Lady Marmalade is taking the Flying Scotchman up to York. She needs to attend to some financial affairs related to the estate of her deceased husband, Eric.

It is a time of reflection and Lady Marmalade is eager to get onto the train and away from the cacophony of the train station.

However, the train will not offer the respite she requires. During dinner on the trip to York, Major Jasper Moss is murdered. He wasn't a nice man, but he didn't deserve to be killed.

In the short time before the train makes it to York, does Lady Marmalade have the time to determine who amongst the five dinner guests killed him?

Captain Houghton has motive, he served under the Major in the second war. Winnie Smith has motive too as does the Major's own daughter, Ethel who has accompanied him on this trip. Evan Cross, the waiter has a dark secret that gives him grounds for murder and Mr. Lewis Bryan had a business deal go bad with the Major that gives him incentive too.

Five motives, five possible killers and one little old lady to figure it all out before they get to York and the killer escapes into the dark of night.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Jason Blacker was born in Cape Town but spent most of his first 18 years in Johannesburg. His thirst for justice and peace for all humanity was formed in the African sun. He writes mystery fiction and literary fiction as well as poetry and daily haikus at his haiku blog.

When not writing he is either spending time with his wife and son or herding the 4 cats that rule the roost. Other than that, he enjoys squash, both the game and the vegetable and running. A healthy body allows for a healthy mind and a fertile creative soil from which the writing springs.

    Most of the story seemed to be missing. The kindle version seemed incomplete. I'd get the book instead because the main character is very interesting.
