A Book Collector Mystery
BY VICTORIA ABBOTT
ABOUT THE BOOK:
The national bestselling author of The Wolfe Widow
presents another spine-tingling mystery featuring rare book
collector Jordan Bingham and some Ngaio Marsh first editions
worth killing for“
Jordan works hard to improve Vera Van Alst’s collection of classic detective stories. So when Chadwick Kauffman—heir to the Kauffman fortune—offers a very good price on a fine collection of Ngaio Marsh first editions owned by his recently deceased stepfather, she is thrilled to meet with him at his fabled summer estate, Summerlea.
The next day, Jordan and Vera are shocked to read that Chadwick has died in a fall from the grand staircase at Summerlea. But when the picture in the paper is of a different man, it becomes clear that the ladies are victims of a scam. And they’ll have to unmask the imposter fast, because someone is trying to frame them for murder“

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Victoria Abbott is a collaboration between the always very
funny and creative artist, photographer and short story
author, Victoria Maffini and her mother, Mary Jane Maffini,
award-winning author of three mystery series and two dozen
short stories. Their four miniature dachshunds are
understandably outraged that a pug and some Siamese cats
have wiggled their way into the series.

The Marsh Madness sounds like an intriguing book! I can't wait to discover who was pulling the scam, as well as, who the real murderer is. Sounds like a fun read. Thank you for the giveaway.

I went to Victoria Abbott's website, and I enjoyed reading "A Note From Jordon." I learned more about the different animals and their likes and dislikes (cute!).

Someone decided to make some extra money selling something they didn't own. I wonder who killed him. I'd love to find out. Sounds interesting.
