The Valentine's Day Murders - Kendall Scott - Bog

It has been nine months since Constance Aberfield "retired" from her crime solving ways and she is loving every minute of it. That's what she is telling herself anyway. Besides, with Valentine's Day week descending upon the small town of Modest Peak, Constance is flat out too busy to even think of doing anything non-hotel related. Even if she wanted to work a case, she would not have the time.Constance is so dedicated to her retirement in fact, that when she is alerted to a serial killer known as the St. Valentine Killer, operating in Denver, she refuses to take the case. Even Sheriff Nevil, begging for her help for a change, isn't enough to get her back in the game. She really is done with that life.But when the St. Valentine Killer makes his way to Modest Peak, and begins to target people close to Constance, she will have to ask herself if her self-imposed retirement is worth it. This is especially true when it becomes increasingly clear that only she possesses the skills required to put the killer behind bars once and for all.
