The Mystery of the Lost Husbands

Is murdering husbands an addiction or merely a bad habit?

This is the question facing P.I. Cat Harrington when rich builder, Tom Drayton, dies shortly after his wedding night. Suspicion falls on his widow, Anastasia Rodriguez, the survivor of three previous 'lost' husbands.

Two years later, Anastasia is engaged again, to Cat's friend Angelo, an Italian snail collector.

Angelo's sister, Gia, employs Cat and the SeeMs Detective Agency to discover if her brother's financ is a killer.

The search for Anastasia's lost husbands takes Cat and her team from Scotland to the South of Spain and on to Argentina.

They have just a few weeks before the wedding to discover if Anastasia is a murderer and save their friend from becoming victim number five.

This is the first in the SeeMS Detective Agency series. All amateur pilots with other demanding jobs, including an airline pilot, the detectives normally search for lost dogs and unearth fly-tippers. However, when their friend Angelo gets engaged to the woman known in the pub as the Black Widow, they are keen to discover if she really murdered her previous husbands or not.
