The Norman Case

Summer in Derbyshire brings a never ending stream of guests to Doveby House.  Janet and Joan Markham find themselves working harder than they'd ever expected when they bought the bed and breakfast.  While most of the guests have been pleasant, there have been enough difficult guests to make Janet wary whenever they are expecting new arrivals.


She and Joan are both relieved when their latest guests seem nearly perfect.  The quick arrival and departure of another couple who are considerably less amiable makes them feel as if they're being quite lucky at the moment.


However, when a few small objects disappear from the local antique shop, they find themselves wondering whether their guests are as nice as they seem.  As more items go missing all around Doveby Dale, Janet and Joan find themselves caught up in yet another criminal investigation.
