For a needed escape, Dogger, the loyal family servant, suggests a boating trip for Flavia and her two older sisters. As their punt drifts past the church where a notorious vicar had recently dispatched three of his female parishioners by spiking their communion wine with cyanide, Flavia, an expert chemist with a passion for poisons, is ecstatic. Suddenly something grazes her fingers as she dangles them in the water. She clamps down on the object, imagining herself Ernest Hemingway battling a marlin, and pulls up what she expects will be a giant fish. But in Flavia’s grip is something far better: a human head, attached to a human body. If anything could take Flavia’s mind off sorrow, it is solving a murder—although one that may lead the young sleuth to an early grave.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePraise for The Grave’s a Fine and Private Place\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Flavia [is] irrepressible, precocious and indefatigable. . . .

But with Flavia’s blasted sisters and insufferable cousin underfoot, Buckshaw now seems both too empty—and not empty enough. Only too eager to run an errand for the vicar’s wife, Flavia hops on her trusty bicycle, Gladys, to deliver a message to a reclusive wood-carver. Finding the front door ajar, Flavia enters and stumbles upon the poor man’s body hanging upside down on the back of his bedroom door. The only living creature in the house is a feline that shows little interest in the disturbing scene. Curiosity may not kill this cat, but Flavia is energized at the prospect of a new investigation.

The lone occupant of a Gothic mansion crawling with feral cats, he has been waging war against his son’s attempts to put him into an old-age home and sent his last caretaker running for the madhouse. But Maud is this impossible man’s last chance: if she can help him get the house in order, he just might be able to stay. So the unlikely pair begins to cooperate, bonding over their shared love of Irish folktales and mutual dislike of Mr. Flood’s overbearing son.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePublisher: Washington Square Press; Reprint edition (March 12, 2019)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePaperback: 352 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eISBN-13:‎ 978-1501180644\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prairie Sky General Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33518868267052,"sku":"Simon\u0026Schuster or Ingram","price":22.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/6387\/9980\/products\/81wM5ansI7L.jpg?v=1586458676"},{"product_id":"things-in-jars-jess-kidd","title":"Things In Jars [Jess Kidd]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn this “miraculous and thrilling” (Diane Setterfield, #1\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ebestselling author) mystery for fans of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Essex Serpent\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eand\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Book of Speculation\u003c\/i\u003e, Victorian London comes to life as an intrepid female sleuth wades through a murky world of collectors and criminals to recover a remarkable child.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridie Devine—flame-haired, pipe-smoking detective extraordinaire—is confronted with the most baffling puzzle yet: the kidnapping of Christabel Berwick, secret daughter of Sir Edmund Athelstan Berwick, and a peculiar child whose reputed supernatural powers have captured the unwanted attention of collectors in this age of discovery.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWinding her way through the sooty streets of Victorian London, Bridie won’t rest until she finds the young girl, even if it means unearthing secrets about her past that she’d rather keep buried.
