This is the boxed set of the Kate Redman Mystery Novellas: Joy, Valentine, Descent and Tasteful, by bestselling crime writer Celina Grace. Joy (a short story) The last person Detective Sergeant Kate Redman wants to see while she's doing her Christmas shopping is habitual petty thief and homeless alcoholic Charlie Petworth. While she knows that Charlie steals small things in part to get a warm bed for the night, it's still annoying, particularly in the season of good will. Then a far more serious crime occurs and Kate realises that Charlie might well be involved. But why would he go from stealing a packet of flower seeds to stealing a little toddler? And is there more to this case than at first meets the eye? Valentine A respectable, middle-aged housewife. An ambitious young lawyer. A student burlesque dancer. Three women with nothing in common – except for the fact that someone has sent them a macabre Valentine's Day gift; a pig's heart pierced by an arrow. Is this a case of serious harm intended? Or just a malicious prank? Detective Inspector Olbeck thinks there might be something more sinister behind it but his colleague Detective Sergeant Kate Redman is too busy mourning the departure of her partner Tin to New York to worry too much about the case. Until one of the women receives a death threat… Descent It's New Year in the West Country town of Abbeyford and Detective Sergeant Kate Redman is trying to cope with her workload, her relationship with her former DCI and with the discovery of a frozen body at the bottom of a local ravine. A tragic accident? A suicide? Or murder? Kate has enough to contend with when it comes to the recent recruitment of DCI Nicola Weaver who seems determined to prove Kate wrong. But is this a crime and if it is, what does it mean for Kate and her colleagues? Tasteful Two ramblers make a grim discovery in their walk along the Cotsworld Way, just outside the market town of Abbeyford: a severed human foot by the side of the path. Detective Inspector Kate Redman takes on the case, which turns even more bizarre when a second human foot is found a few days later. Is it just a gory prank or does it tie in with the mysterious disappearance of a local girl?
