MURDER AT THE CHRISTMAS GROTTO

BOXING DAY—LONDON 1923

Camille has planned a visit to Selfridges, the celebrated department store in Oxford Street, London. The store is decorated like a winter wonderland she has heard tell, the epitome of sophisticated chic. After the intense few days she and Cecily had had in Brighton, followed by a hectic Christmas Day where board games and fun and laughter were the order of the day, she decided a trip to the Selfridges Christmas Grotto would be quite the thing, The centrepiece of Harry Selfridges Christmas store had been the talk of London, a pièce de résistance she had read in The Times. An exquisite theatrical event they should not miss. She felt that nothing would delight Ottiie and Amandine more. Accompanied by her loyal maid and friend, Cecily Nugent, they arrive at Selfridges giggling with excitement, but unknown to them their afternoon of delights was to take a very different turn. Yet again Camille and Cecily are called upon to utilise their sleuthing skills to find a murderer. But will our girls discover who turned the Christmas Dream into a nightmare? And will Christmas ever be the same again?

MURDER IN PARIS

Summer 1923—PARIS

Camille decides it’s time to make her promised visit to Paris to see her old friend, Madame Tatou. She, Ottilie, and Cecily travel to France by aeroplane, a new experience for them all. They have a purpose in going to Paris, one that they hope will end in joy, but their plans are somewhat waylaid when Madame Tatou finds the body of her maid in a cupboard at her 7th Arrondissement apartment. The intrepid Camille, and her loyal maid, Cecily, set out to discover why Madame Tatou’s maid was murdered, who wanted her dead…and why!

MURDER AT THE CAFE BONBON

AUTUMN 1923

Chief Inspector Richard Owen dresses carefully at his house in Chiswick. He is due to meet Lady Camille Divine at Café Bonbon, a well-known nightclub, after a six-week separation when he decided to visit his late wife’s relatives in the South of France. He is due to go back to work at Scotland Yard after a two-month sabbatical, but he and Camille have some unfinished business.

When they last saw each other in Paris they were parted before Richard had an opportunity to tell Camille what was on his mind. Camille’s cook, Knolly, had been taken ill at Camille’s house in Duke Street in London. Camille had been desperate to return to England to see Knolly, her cook and one of her dearest friends, to ensure she got the best treatment. Richard knew how much she cared about her staff and reluctantly said goodbye.

Six weeks later and they’re both back in London. It’s the perfect time to tell her what he’d so wanted to tell her in Paris, but an incident at the Café Bonbon where a cigarette girl is murdered seems as though it will thwart his intentions yet again. Will Richard get the chance to tell Camille about his past, or will their involvement in another murder mean he won’t get the chance to discover if Camille, the woman he has fallen in love with, is the woman he hopes she is? Will she accept his past life, or will she walk away?
