Weddings can bring out the worst in people. . . . “For those who enjoy civilized mayhem, the charming Freers will be a welcome diversion.” —Kirkus Reviews Against her better judgment, Virginia Freer has agreed to be a witness at an old friend’s second wedding―against her better judgment because the other witness is Felix, her sort-of-ex-husband. On the other hand, she does rather enjoy Felix . . . in small doses. Thank heavens for that, because little else about the wedding is enjoyable, from the oddly unwelcoming hostess to the vicious murder of the groom’s father shortly after the spectacularly dull reception. At least the police are amusing―right out of a third-rate comedy, with their insistence that this was just a robbery gone wrong. True, some silver appears to be missing, but Felix and Virginia have (sadly) seen enough murders to know when a fellow has been deliberately whacked in the head. But nailing down the details and persuading the police will take some time. It seems Virginia is in for rather a larger dose of Felix than she bargained for . . . Praise for the novels of E.X. Ferrars “[An] engrossing whodunit.” —Publishers Weekly “Fans of Agatha Christie will be pleased.” —Denver Post - Del 4 - Virginia and Felix

A couple’s been separated for six years—but it doesn’t stop them from sleuthing together—in this British mystery by a CWA Lifetime Achievement Award winner. Virginia Freer has had it with her sort-of-ex-husband’s taste for drama. A shopkeeper who lived in Virginia’s town has been murdered, and Felix Freer’s neighbor in London, a sweet old bird, has too. The crimes took place miles apart. But look at the coincidences, Felix insists. That unpleasant silversmith. That awful couple seeking revenge. These were not two separate murders, according to him—there is Something going on. Virginia raises an eyebrow and sighs deeply: The world lost a second Olivier, she thinks, when Felix opted for gambling, mooching, and petty theft rather than the stage. But eventually even her relentless pragmatism gets worn down, and thank goodness, because there is, indeed, Something going on. And Felix and Virginia are just the duo to sort it out, chalk and cheese though they may be . . . “There are few detective-story writers so consistently good.” —Sunday Times
