One Man Left: 13 (A Joel Franklin Mystery) - Tapa blanda

One Man Left (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Partners in crime, living and dead. Having rescued his close friend Dr. Alfred Khryscoff, Detective Joel Franklin returns to the London police station only to be assigned a new task by his volatile boss, Chief Bedgegood. The chief's aunt Celeste has been robbed, and it happened the night of Dr. Harold Plimpton's seance! Fortunately for Joel, Dr. Plimpton, world-renowned Doctor of Thaumaturgy-and Joel's primary suspect-is hosting another seance, this time at the home of one of Celeste's friends. Joel, who has a special gift for speaking to the dead-or essences, as he prefers to call them-smells a fraud. And possibly worse. With the help of his sensible-and very pregnant-wife, Georgie, Joel gets himself invited to Plimpton's inner circle, and what began as the innocent enough Case of the Stolen British Biscuit Box explodes into a tale of dramatic seances, tortured spirits, bloody murder, and elaborate heists, driven by pride, greed, and revenge. Set in the fabulous mansions and glittering society of London's wealthy elites in the late 1930s, One Man Left is the latest installment in the Joel Franklin Mystery series, which began with Lightning at 200 Durham Street. Taking place in Ontario, Canada, with a cast of recurring characters, this paranormal historical whodunit harks back to the Golden Age of detective fiction and will appeal to readers of all ages.
