The Lake Garda Mysteries - Kt Ashbourne - Bog

Nineteen-year-old amateur sleuth Kim is bogged down trying to resolve issues for other people while also trying to make a little money for herself. But she receives a strange, unexpected message, that appears to be a plea for help, but from whom and from where is not at all clear. Nothing more than that is required to engage Kim's dynamic determination to relentlessly investigate until she has got to the bottom of the matter, and has helped whoever it was asked for help, and brought to justice whomever it was instigated the need for help. There are moments of mirth along the way, and some opportunities for the odd romantic interlude too.

Just as she is getting truly bored with administrating her businesses, a fascinating case arises, and she is called into action by her fiancé in the Carabinieri. A terrible death has occurred, and the police have most of the facts at their disposal, but a crucial period in the relevant timeline is unaccounted for. As ever, Kim is called in to solve the insoluble.
