Car detective Jack Colby returns to solve a ?dual-engine puzzle . . . Sleekly designed to appeal to both automobile buffs and cozy fans? (Booklist). A call from Jack Colby?s fiery ex-wife Eva always means trouble. This time it?s a doozy. She?s been accused of murdering her husband, a Mexican band leader shot to death on the towpath of the River Medway. But Jack?s race to the rescue comes with a slight detour: his other client, the beguiling Daisy Croft. Someone?s stolen Daisy?s beloved Morris Minor classic and she needs Jack?s car-theft sleuthing skills to get it back. To Jack?s surprise, the two cases begin to merge. It?s appears that Eva and Daisy?s disparate dilemmas have something in common: a murder committed at a local pub more than three decades ago. As a long-festering plan of vengeance endangers the lives of two innocent women, and a second murder occurs, Jack?s investigation heads down a very dangerous road.
