The Red Shoes

Second edition.
Warning: high level of toxic humour and loose limbs (including tongues in cheeks)!

Four humorous crime stories, created with generous assistance from my blog readers (who are apparently even weirder than me).

THE RED SHOES (originally published in the anthology Candied Crime): what happens when a retired chief inspector covets his neighbour's shoes.

A STUDY IN BLACK (originally published as Zed Alley): what happens when Rhapsody Gershwin participates in a crime festival and stumbles on a black handbag.

THE BLUE VASE: two nosy little boys visit Granny and stick their noses in her past.

GREEN ACRES: all Rhapsody Gershwin wanted was to visit a friend in the local old people's home, but as you know, that girl will run into trouble.

Written by the Danish crime writer Dorte Hummelshoj Jakobsen, best known for the popular stories "The Cosy Knave", "The Charity Shop" and "Heather Farm".
