発行者による作品情報
"An Oregon adventure that combines Harry Potter vibes with Miss Marple–type murders and a champion alpaca! A brisk, fun read!" —Kirkus Reviews
Welcome to Maidenwell. Come for the alpaca show. Stay for the murder.
The first book in a brand-new series perfect for Richard Osman readers and all fans of utterly delightful and page-turning whodunnits.
In one crushing week, Gina Biletti, a 40-something New Yorker, loses her job and signs her divorce papers. Shattered but determined to reboot her life, Gina gratefully accepts her best friend Danielle's offer: a girls' weekend escape to the mysterious village of Maidenwell clear across the country.
Built by an eccentric tech billionaire in a remote corner of Oregon, Maidenwell is an improbable but picture-perfect replica of a quaint English village. Cobblestone streets, inviting tea shops, vibrant pubs, and an Instagrammable Village Green—Maidenwell's got it all.
As Gina explores the village's charms, a gathering of wealthy alpaca breeders descends upon Maidenwell, all vying for Florrie, the world's most valuable alpaca. But when one of the breeders is found dead in her room at the stately Haverford Hall, Gina's curiosity kick in, and she suspects foul play.
The floof flies and soon Gina finds herself embroiled in mysteries, lies, and murder. As the bodies pile up, she realizes that she's next on the murderer's list. Can Gina untangle the mysterious strands of this puzzle before the killer strikes again? Or will she end up DOA (dead on alpaca)?
Drawing on classic whodunnit vibes with a modern twist, this fast-paced, deliciously witty mystery will enthrall you from start to finish. If you love M.C. Beaton, Frances Evesham, and Agatha Christie, welcome to Maidenwell—or should we say Murderwell...
