Gwendolen
First of the Philip Rayke 1950's Urban Fantasy Mysteries
Philip is just a desk man at the British Foreign Office who probably doesn't take life as seriously as he should, but his friend Inspector Henry Parkhurst knows he has a nose for the 'not quite normal'.
Can Philip discover why a college heartthrob would marry the sort of girl no one notices? How does a fit young man end up dead months later, alone in a locked room. What if the only answer is ... magic?
A trail of Russians, old books and a Cornishwoman. Who knows what really went on in that home of supposed wedded bliss if not … Gwendolen?
Enter the ...
... bohemian world of the Armstrong-Witworths, take the road to a remote Cornish cottage, experience the streets of 1950s London, in whose hidden corners murder and magic are never far away in the world of the Philip Rayke mysteries.
If you’ve enjoyed the Amanda Cadabra series, you’ll love encountering members of the supporting cast as they were in their twenties. If you’ve yet to read them this is the perfect introduction to members of that strange village where nothing is as it seems.
