Fiction. Mystery. HTML: Detective Kathy Kolla's first case is one for the books. Meredith Winterbottom, a resident of Jerusalem Lane�??a quaint section of London inhabited by Eastern European immigrants�??and a great-granddaughter of Karl Marx, is found dead.

Can they unravel the mystery before Kathy's first case is her last… (more)
