FINGERS,

HANDS...**Minerva
Kenny
is
a
dear
woman,
but
her
tendency
to
"borrow"
things
without
asking
has

caught
up
with
her.

Minerva's

and
he's
holding

over

they
discover
something
more
shocking:

corpse.
Considering

is
far
from
the
only
suspect.
And
when
the
inspector's
cook
is
called
away

Mrs.
Jeffries
finds
herself
doing
double
duty:
cooking
for
the
household--and

to
cook
this

goose...IS

on
his
toes.

awed
by
his
Scotland
Yard
successes--but
they
don't
know
about
his
secret
weapon.
No
matter
how
messy
the
murder
or
how
dirty
the
deed,
Mrs.
Jeffries's
polished
detection
skills
are
up
to
the
task...proving
that
behind
every
great
man
there's
a
woman--and
that
a
crime-solver's
work
is
never done.
