The Mystery of the Missing Bequest

di Wendy Boynton (Autore)

The Choir Press, 2026

When Patrick Faulkston dies peacefully at Victoria House, his death raises little suspicion—until his valuable stamp collection disappears. The three leather-bound albums, left to his friend Sophie, seem to have vanished without a trace. Convinced it’s no ordinary misplacement, resident Jack Harris calls on amateur sleuths Meg and Lauren to investigate. But what begins as a simple theft soon turns far darker. As Meg and Lauren uncover a growing list of suspects, a violent stabbing shocks the community. The police see no connection—but Meg isn’t convinced. If the victim was involved in the theft, who would go to such lengths to silence them? With tensions rising, suspicion falls on those closest to Patrick and Sophie. Family loyalties fracture, motives blur, and no one’s story quite adds up. As Lauren pushes deeper into the mystery, she finds herself in increasing danger. Who took the stamp collection? What are they trying to hide? And how far will someone go to keep the truth buried? A gripping cosy mystery packed with twists, secrets, and a race against time—perfect for fans of amateur sleuths and page-turning intrigue.
