The Lost Lady of Limone tells of a modern-day amateur detective who solves a difficult case in Italy. Set in the beautiful town of Limone, our heroine is a 19-year-old girl, Kim. She is employed as a holiday representative, a job she loves but at which she is woefully inexperienced. Presented with an unexpected mystery, she sets herself to solve the challenge with gusto.

In The Lake Garda Mysteries Vol 20 Kim sympathizes with an exhausted Francesco who is struggling with a diabolical case. She promises not to interfere so he divulges the essence of the problem. It’s not long before she’s in it up to her neck. But can she bring this gang of hard boiled culprits to justice? The task proves much more difficult than she could ever have imagined.

In this strange mystery, Kim is called in to help identify a corpse that has been discovered in a most unusual place. As usual, she applies her investigative skills and slowly tracks down exactly who the victim was. On the way, she enjoys some good times with her coterie of friends and lovers. And there are a few unexpected surprises that pop up. Finally, she conjures up a cunning stratagem to ensnare the prime suspect.

In The Carcass in the Car in Cassone, Kim is asked by the Carabinieri to help identify the body of a mysterious suicide. She accomplishes that task with her usual panache. But later she is unsure – was it really the body of the person she identified? She has to go to great lengths to find the true identity of the victim and to trace and trap the actual killer who has staged the apparent suicide.

In The Lake Garda Mysteries Vol 17 Kim finds herself wrapped up in a peculiar case that makes little sense to anyone, especially the brusque Commissario Tommaso she is obliged to work with. It takes some patience, foresight and intense investigation to figure out what actually happened and who did what to whom, and why they were all lying about it.

Kim starts to put her own affairs in better order, helped by her loyal colleagues. But she hears of a woman in distress and resolves to assist her. Before she can act on that, her husband brings a new case to her attention. A dead driver and a coach nobody owns. Who was he and where was he going? The conundrum has resisted all the efforts of the Carabinieri, and they know only Kim can crack the case with no leads to follow. Having solved that, she settles the issue of the beleaguered woman, entirely to her own satisfaction.

Kim faces two cases in this gripping instalment. An escaped felon and a strange request from an olive-skinned beauty. She must wrestle simultaneously with both conundrums, and track down the convict while resolving the mystery of what exactly is inside the booty in the boathouse - and who put it there and why? There are the usual splashes of humour as Kim gets to grips with her tasks.

Once more, Kim is called into action to solve a baffling case. The sudden and unexpected demise of a dentist in his own surgery has the Lombardy State Police and the Carabinieri desperate to find an explanation. Only Kim’s inimitable talents can resolve the riddle and bring the culprit to justice and secure the safety of the good citizens of Desenzano. She also secures her own happiness by marrying for a second time.

When a horribly murdered body is found in a cable car in a beautiful mountain setting, the State Police and Carabinieri swing into action to identify the victim and proceed to ensnare the culprit. Unfortunately for them, they cannot even establish the identity of the victim, let alone catch the killer.

A terrible death has occurred, and the police have most of the facts at their disposal, but a crucial period in the relevant timeline is unaccounted for.

Nineteen-year-old Kim is finishing her first season of work around the beautiful lake. A dead body is found on the ferry, and the police are totally baffled and can make no further progress on the intractably difficult case. With immense reluctance, they call in the very unlikely assistance of a consulting detective, who single-handedly cracks open the puzzle and goes on to solve the case.

Kim sympathise avec un Francesco épuisé qui est aux prises avec une affaire diabolique. Elle promet de ne pas interférer, alors il divulgue l’essence du problème. Il ne faut pas longtemps avant qu’elle ne soit dedans jusqu’au cou. Mais peut-elle traduire en justice cette bande de coupables purs et durs ? La tâche s’avère beaucoup plus difficile qu’elle n’aurait jamais pu l’imaginer.

Kim has long since given up any detective work. But when Commissario Tommaso asks her for advice on a very troublesome case, not only does she provide advice, but she also follows it herself. Soon she’s up to her neck in a strangely mysterious investigation. Who killed the victim on the flight to Verona and why?
