Meet Helen Oddfellow: London tour guide, literary researcher and unstoppable seeker after truth.
Thirty-something Helen sometimes longs for a quiet life of reading, walking and writing. But she can’t resist a mystery, whether it’s a rumour of a hidden manuscript from the age of Shakespeare, or a clue to a Dickensian murder mystery. Assisted by street-smart young journalist Nick Wilson and her elderly crossword-fiend neighbour Crispin Day, Helen seeks out clues from archives, cracks historical codes, unearths dangerous secrets and comes up against some very modern-day villains in the process.
This collection includes all four Helen Oddfellow mysteries at a discounted price: Unlawful Things, The Peacock Room, The Crimson Thread and Folly Ditch.
