Gemma and Carol are childhood friends and after acting strangely at lunch, Carol is involved in a hit and run and doesn’t survive. Gemma finds several pieces of paper in her purse that could only have been put there by Carol. Now she has to find out what it all means while running from the bad guys.
It seems the new tenant in her apartment building is a Secret Service Agent who was trying to gain information from Carol.
Havoc ensues and there is much more than meets the eye. Why would anyone want to kill Carol? Who would kidnap Gemma’s roommate Jilly? Is it a case of mistaken identity?
Gemma’s active imagination goes into overdrive as she tries to piece together the clues and what they mean!
Lisa writes with 50’s flair, from her vintage dialogue to her description of the sleazy hideout of the criminals.

THE CASE OF THE CLOBBERED CAD by Debra E. Marvin
In
this wonderful cozy mystery by Debra E. Marvin, the heroine, Heather
Munro has traveled across the pond to study at Edinburgh, Scotland. She
barely starts her classes when she is faced with a dead body! She is
compelled to solve the crime -- Nancy Drew style-- with the help of her
trusted, but quirky landlady and two young professors from the
University, even after being warned off by the local constabulary.
Debra inserts interesting facts about England and Scotland along the way in a manner that is natural.
The main characters faith is subtle but thought provoking in a way that drives their actions.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable read. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
