The Withdrawing Room

By Charlotte MacLeod

Canadian-born Charlotte MacLeod spent much of her life in New England, the setting of this screwball cozy mystery. When Sarah Kelling’s boarding-house develops an alarmingly high mortality rate, she must reunite with her former sleuthing partner, Detective Max Bittersohn, to find answers. But in searching for a potential killer, the duo develops feelings that go a little beyond your standard friendship—and which might into grow a much more permanent partnership. In MacLeod’s deft hands, their investigation and camaraderie make for a fast and fun read.
