Bones in the Blackout: A Romantic Wartime Cozy Mystery (Dr. Benjamin Bones Mysteries Book 1)

Murder in Haunted Cornwall

On the eve of World War II, Dr. Benjamin Bones is at war with himself. While most young men are being sent away to fight the Germans, Ben is chosen to serve on English soil. Ordered to move to wild, beautiful Cornwall, he must trade his posh London office and stylish city life for the tiny village of Birdswing, population 1,221 souls. But leaving his home and shelving his career ambitions arenâ€™t the only sacrifices facing Ben. His unfaithful wife, Penny, is accompanying him to Cornwall in a last-ditch effort to save their marriage. But moments after their arrival, Penny is run down in the street, and Ben is almost fatally injured. And while the villagers assume Pennyâ€™s death to be an accident, Ben quickly deduces it was murder.

As he convalesces in Fenton House, which the locals call haunted, Ben meets Birdswingâ€™s eccentric inhabitants. Mr. Gaston, the volunteer air warden, obsessed with defending his remote village against Nazi spies; Mrs. Cobblepot, a thoroughly practical housekeeper who believes in fairies; and Lady Juliet Linton, a prickly, headstrong aristocrat who wonâ€™t take no for an answer. While adapting to life during Britainâ€™s â€œWar at Home,â€ a time of ration books, victory gardens, bomb shelters, and the Blackout, Ben sets about solving the mystery of Pennyâ€™s murderâ€”with a little help from Lady Juliet and the Fenton House ghost.

MARRIAGE CAN BE MURDER (Dr. Benjamin Bones Mysteries #1) is the first of Emma Jameson's romantic wartime mystery series. DIVORCE CAN BE DEADLY is book #2. Dr. Bones and Lady Juliet are also featured in DR. BONES AND THE CHRISTMAS WISH (Magic of Cornwall #1) and DR. BONES AND THE LOST LOVE LETTER (Magic of Cornwall #2).
