Informationen zum Autor Carola Dunn is the author of the Daisy Dalrymple series as well as several Regency Romances and three contemporary mysteries set in Cornwall. Born and raised in England, the author now lives in Eugene, Oregon, USA. Klappentext A cryptic message spurs retiree turned sleuth Eleanor on a frantic search for a refugee's missing family. While walking her dog with friends, Eleanor rescues a young half-drowned Indian man out the water. Delirious and concussed, he talks about his family being trapped in a cave. While the young man, unconscious by this stage, is whisked away to a hospital, a desperate effort is mounted to find the family of which he spoke. The local police inspector presumes they are refugees from East Africa, abandoned by the traffickers who brought them in, so while the countryside is being scoured for the family, Eleanor herself descends into a dangerous den of smugglers in a desperate search to find the man responsible while there is still time. 'Adept at showing character through witty dialogue, Dunn paints an amusing picture of a small town that readers will want to visit again soon.' Publishers Weekly 'Dunn has a knack for writing meatier-than-usual cosies with strong female characters, and she has another charming winner here.'
