Down the aisle…

P.I. Rosco Polycrates and crossword editor Belle Graham are back for more puzzle and crime solving. This time they discover the ups and downs of married lifeβ€”and death…

Everyone’s favorite puzzle loversβ€”Belle and Roscoβ€”have finally decided to tie the knot. But their wedding vows are put on hold when murder pays a visit. Two homeless people turn up dead, a crossword puzzle tucked beneath them. But who could hold a grudge against a couple of harmless vagrants? Then Rosco disappears without a trace.

Left to her own defenses, the only thing Belle has to work with is a series of anonymous crosswords delivered to her door. If she can figure out the clues, she can solve the crimeβ€”and find Rosco. It all adds up to a murderous puzzler that’s starting to give Belle a serious case of cold feet…
