As some of you know, I sometimes ask your help in solving little mysteries for some of the Cozy Mystery Site readers. This comes to us from Sandy:
“I was hoping one of the cozy mystery fanatics like myself would be able to help me find a series I “found” and “lost” a few years ago. The main characters where divorced but back together and I believe the woman was an accountant or investment broker. The husband inherited a trunk of treasure/gold? from a wayward uncle.
Does this ring any bells for anyone? I have been looking for awhile now and have googled every combination of the info I could think of but haven’t been able to find this series.
Thanks in advance for any help any one can provide.”
OK, Cozy Mystery Readers… Your mission, should you agree to accept it >>> Let’s see if we can come up with the name of the author and/or mystery series for Sandy!

I have not a clue but I can hear the theme music for Mission Impossible playing in the background. I am interested in seeing where this takes us.

You and me both, Dennis!
I sure hope that someone is able to come up with the author/series for Sandy.
Kim says
I think the author is Maggie Toussaint and the series is A Cleopatra Jones Mystery (Five Star Mystery Series). I hope this helps your reader. 🙂

Thanks, Kim, for your help. Unfortunately, Toussaint isn’t who Sandy is looking for…
Thanks, again!

Good news! Sandy solved her own “mystery author dilema”!!!
“On the subject of finding an author, I have finally found the series I had asked for help with on your lovely site a while back. It is A. E. Maxwell’s Fiddler and Fiona series. It’s been bugging me for a while now and I spent a few hours searching on line again tonight and finally found it.
Just an update,
Sandy”
