Silly, silly Jack, former NYPD homicide detective.  After he retires he moves to a small village in England for peace and quiet.  Hasn't he ever watched PBS Mystery like Midsomer Murders were the dead bodies out number the living?!?Victor Hamblyn, 91, can barely toddle yet when a fire starts in his house instead of leaving he goes up the stairs to the attic and dies.  His carer (care giver in US speak) Hope, thinks the fire and Victor's death is suspicious and asks her friend Sarah and Jack to get involved.Even though this is novella length, it managed to tell a pretty complete mystery story from beginning to end complete with actual investigating and background info.  I'm definitely interested in reading more.I received a copy from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.
