The Silent Hour: A Mrs. Meade Mystery
E-book $2.99
Major Cambert and his grandson Jim were known to have quarreled bitterly
over Jim’s choice of a wife, so when the Major is found shot dead by his own fireside
the next night, Jim is the prime suspect—and a suspect without an alibi. But
there were others who may have held a grudge against the Major too: an
obnoxious ex-soldier, a sullen ranch hand…and Jim’s fiancĂ©e. And none of them
can account for their whereabouts during the dark hour when Major Cambert was
murdered. With no other evidence to go on, Mrs. Meade will have to apply all
her wits to discover who is really guilty . . .
