Dead Man's Hand

A Penelope Sinclair Cozy Murder Mystery

By: Tessa Aura

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Divorcee Penelope moves to Bath for a fresh start until a corpse clutching the jack of clubs turns her shop into a deadly poker game.

An innocent walk in the park ends with dead bodies, poker hands, and Penelope in the middle of the shuffle.

Unaffected by Detective Caleb's warnings, she’s determined to unmask the killer, with her teacup chihuahua, Teo, nose to the ground. As cards and corpses stack up, each tied to Bath's failed bakery co-op, her curiosity peaks.

Secrets rise like yeast, revealing a web of deceit and betrayal that's far from sweet. Local baker, Maisie, seems secretly kneaded into the mix. While gullible Lily, is caught in a heated argument that sounds deadly.

Yet all fingers point at Leon, with the most to lose and a shady past.

Clues edge her closer to the truth, but threats warn her she’s shuffling straight into danger.

The ace of spades bears her name; Penelope’s the final player. She needs to call their bluff before being dealt her demise.
