Eve Parsons

Edith Arneau may be in her sixties, but her unruly behaviour makes her the despair of the staff in the home where she lives in retirement. However, her resourcefulness, her background as an actress and her remarkable climbing skills come in handy when her valuable cabinet of antique fans, collected during her years on the stage, is mysteriously stolen from her room. Helped by the assistant matron, Maree, and their male companions, she sets out for France in the hope of tracking them down. But it is not long before Edith herself disappears… A charming ‘whodunnit’ set in England and the South of France.
