Partners in Crime
Book 2 of the Tommy and Tuppence series
Now married, Tommy and Tuppence take over a detective agency as part of an intelligence assignment and investigate a succession of unusual clients. Each linked case playfully echoes the methods of popular fictional detectives while a larger espionage threat develops beneath the comedy. Their complementary instincts make the partnership more effective than either one's impersonations. Light and clever, this collection suits readers who enjoy short mysteries, literary parody, married sleuths, and danger balanced by affectionate banter.
