Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ancient curse has returned to haunt the present day... Etta, Dora and Leon are heading for another home swap, this time on the Isle of Mull, off the western coast of Scotland. However, rather than a house or flat, they arrive at a Scottish castle. Although a little rundown, it is a fascinating place to stay and, as dictated by Gaelic folklore, it comes complete with a ghost. The trio learns, to its collective dismay, that the castle's days are numbered. A developer has made an offer that's too good for the owner, who's unable to cope with the rising costs of maintaining the historic building, to refuse. But the local community in nearby Tobermory is most upset by the prospect of losing their heritage to a deluxe golf hotel for wealthy international guests, and a group of elderly folk plan to make things a little hard for the newcomers. When the developer is found dead, hit by the mace of a suit of armour standing in the castle hall, the locals' suspicions are raised. Have the elderly rebels strayed well over the fine line between legitimate protest and criminal offence? Or was the more supernatural hand of the ghost to blame? As the police scout around, searching for the truth, our favourite sleuths team up with the Tobermory community to return serenity to the town. However, despite the terrible death, the sale of the castle is still moving forward... *** The Ghost of Glengullion Castle is the sixth book in the riveting Homeswappers Mysteries, a humorous cosy series following the adventures of two retired teachers and their Basset Hound as they explore the most delightfully murderous travel destinations in Europe and put their skills as sleuths to the test. *** Written in British English, each light-hearted story is clean - no violence, sex or strong language Like the works of the maestro Agatha Christie, any Homeswappers mystery can be read as a standalone or they can all be enjoyed in sequence: 0.

Book excerpt: A holiday is a time to relax, unwind and see the sights. But for two adventurous sexagenarians, the sights have a tendency to include dead bodies. Etta and Dora, both newly retired teachers, travel from their home in Southern Italy to a fairy-tale German town for their first home swap holiday, delighted by their neighbours' warm welcome. But the welcome turns sour when the Night Watchman of Rothenburg is brutally murdered while his tour group takes photographs nearby, a halberd buried in his chest and a peculiar iron mask by his side. When the murderer claims a second victim and the son of their hospitable neighbours becomes the number-one suspect, Etta's analytical mind goes to work. Why was a shame mask left at the scene of each murder? Is there a clandestine trade going on behind the scenes of apparently upstanding local businesses? And why does every lead take her back to the sinister Devil's Ale pub and the terrifying gang who lurk within? Meanwhile, Dora has a puzzle of her own - how can she persuade Etta that a loveably disobedient Basset Hound called Napoleon is now a permanent part of their lives? ◆◆◆ Pack your bags, jump into the backseat of Etta and Dora's old Fiat 500, and join them on their travels around Europe.

But only one knows the form that doom will take. Etta and Dora, retired teachers from the South of Italy, arrive with their Basset Hound, the strong willed, loveable Leon, for a home swap holiday in a German mansion, just in time for the celebrations following the wedding of their hosts' son to a beautiful Parisienne socialite.

Calling on her burgeoning talent as a sleuth, Etta launches her own investigations in parallel with those of the police. But with matters of the heart seeming to play a prominent role, it's the more sentimental Dora who comes to the fore to fill in the gaps.
