Book Description
Bringing a new life into the world is a beautiful experience. Unless it’s in the middle of the worst storm to hit Norfolk for decades, and you’re trapped in a remote, rundown cottage hospital, where the matron believes it’s still the nineteen-fifties! A pre-Christmas get-together at Fern Cottage turns into a panic-filled dash to the hospital at Kings Lynn for Celia, Jack, Daisy and Aidan. They don’t make it. As the crazy storm brings down trees all around them, forced to make a last-gasp detour along a tiny wooded lane, their prayers are answered. Or so they think. Through the lashing rain they spot a tiny, private cottage hospital. With Celia in acute pain, there’s no choice. That’s when the problems really begin… Meanwhile, back in Great Wiltingham… With all four members of the HDA otherwise occupied, Doris and Maisie take it upon themselves to keep the detective agency running. By an unfortunate quirk of fate they accept a case, and there’s no one else to handle it except the Terrible Twosome! It’s just a simple job. The kind that can be wrapped up in a few hours. Or maybe it’s not… Daisy's third Christmas special is a roller-coaster of high emotion and unexpected twists and turns. Enjoy!

Book Description
Third-grader Aven Green has been solving mysteries for a really long time—a whole month! She’s solved many important cases like The Mystery of the Cranky Mom, The Mystery of the Missing Ice Cream, and The Mystery of the Smelly Feet. Her record is nearly 100% (only The Mystery of the Cereal in My Underpants remains unsolved to this day). Aven asks all the right questions, wields her detective kit carefully, and follows up on every clue. Then her teacher’s lunch bag (with her lunch still in it) is taken and Aven’s great-grandma’s beloved dog goes missing! Can this perceptive detective crack two cases at the same time? Luckily, Aven has a super-powered brain full of lots of extra brain cells to take on both cases. See, she was born without arms, so all of the cells that were supposed to make her arms went into making her brain instead. At least that’s her working theory for The Mystery of Why I Have So Many Extra Brain Cells.

Book Description
A few days relaxation in an ancient castle on the shores of Lake Lugano in Northern Italy sounds like an opportunity not to be missed for Daisy and Aidan. Until Leonardo da Vinci, a knight in shining armour, and a tale of greed and debauchery rear their ugly heads, that is. Far from relaxing, our RED heroine begins to wonder if they’ll even escape with their lives! “One of the best cozy mysteries I’ve ever read!” “A real breath of fresh literary air!” Daisy receives an out of the blue phone call from her one-time neighbour back when they lived in London. Gloria invites her and Aidan to visit their castle in the Italian Lakes for a few days break. Married to an Italian businessman, her husband Marcello inherited the castle a few years ago when his wealthy parents passed away. Now living in the impressive sixteenth-century family residence, Gloria thought they may like to see ‘what they’ve done with the place’. As they travel to Italy, Daisy can’t shake off the feeling all is not quite what it seems. She and Gloria have been in touch from time to time, but not had that much contact since they moved away. Her ex-neighbour sounded chirpy on the phone... but perhaps a little too chirpy. Daisy is well aware that sometimes people gush about how happy they are to try and hide just how happy they’re not. She says nothing to Aidan, putting it down to her paranoid gut envisioning problems where none exist, and forces herself to look forward to the few days abroad. They’ve only been in the castle a few hours when Daisy has to admit ignoring her gut feeling was the worst idea ever, realising that what motivated people centuries ago still motivates them today. It’s not looking good... Read about Daisy and our other major series, The Sandie Shaw Mysteries, set in 1920’s Chicago, on the new rtgreen website. And enjoy!

Book Description
A well-known Norfolk author is rumoured to be up to his neck in dark deeds. When his nemesis goes missing, it starts to look like there’s only one person responsible. But is all what it seems? Daisy decides she has to know for sure, and there’s only one way to do that! Jolyon Prendegast, a multi-million-selling author of gothic horror novels, is Norfolk-based, and living in a gothic-style manor not so far from Great Wiltingham. But he’s about to be exposed… Abbie Drake, an investigative reporter, is well known for her devotion to exposing all things suspect. She’s had her teeth into Prendegast for a while, claiming he didn’t write any of his books. Her weekly podcast, ‘The Terrier Times’, is followed by a lot of people. At the end of her latest episode, she hints that she’s about to expose Prendegast for far darker deeds than she first thought, and she’d reveal all in the next podcast. That podcast never appears. Already suspicious, the Poppleswick Pensioners take it upon themselves to investigate, visiting the manor to confront the man. Needless to say they don’t get very far, but refusing to give up, things go scarily downhill for the terrible twosome. In the meantime, Sarah asks Daisy for help with a possibly-missing person Burrows doesn’t have time to look into. That person is Abbie Drake, who also lives in Great Wiltingham. The plot thickens on both sides… Maisie and Doris become ever more convinced Prendegast is responsible for all kinds of horrors, and as Daisy and Aidan delve into Abbie’s disappearance, those circumstances quickly become darker too. But is all as it seems? Is the truth fact or fiction? With no hard evidence, Daisy decides there’s only one way to find out for sure, and it’s not exactly risk-free! Enjoy!

It all begins with a rose bush, mysteriously uprooted in the middle of the night, revealing a horrific secret... If you’ve not met our R.E.D. (Retired Extremely Daisy) heroine yet, the first bundle is a great way to get to know her, and the hit series! Three full books for less than the price of two! Daisy moved to a village a few miles from Kings Lynn in Norfolk a year ago, after a very unfortunate incident in London made her decide village life was the best option. She’s adapted to country life quite well, although she rather irreverently refers to the village of Great Wiltingham as the ‘place people go to wilt’. She does have a wicked side, after all! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” “A real breath of fresh literary air!” In the first book, after some strange goings-on and a murder in the village, Daisy and Aidan, together with a young police-woman called Sarah, whose curiosity gets the better of her, set about solving the mystery. It all begins with a rose bush, mysteriously uprooted in the middle of the night, revealing a horrific secret... In the second book, village life has reverted to as normal as it ever gets where Daisy is concerned. Then one morning everything changes, in a very tragic way. To begin with, Daisy believes someone from her past is responsible. Before she retired, she had a job very few people have, after all. Then a clue from a really unexpected source makes her wonder if it might be someone much closer to home. So once again she becomes the worm on the hook, much to Aidan and Sarah’s horror. For Daisy there’s no choice, because this time it’s just about as personal as it gets… In the third book, following a surprise lead their daughter might have been sold by traffickers to someone in Africa three years ago, Daisy, Aidan and Sarah head for Uganda. But they’ve only been in the country a few minutes when a mysterious dying man thrusts a note into Daisy’s hand. As he gasps his last breath, he begs her not to involve the police. She suddenly realises there isn’t just one, but two mysteries to be solved! The extra mystery deepens as three different people confess to a murder that took place many years ago. But there’s a silver lining to solving a case the local police closed in the nineteen-sixties, because it unearths an overgrown path that just might lead them to Celia. A path that could very well end in an international incident! Read all about Daisy, Sandie, and everything else we do, on the new rtgreen website. Enjoy!

When an Earth-shattering secret has two legs, a big mouth, and a blinkered determination to get home by any means necessary, it’s up to Daisy and Aidan to stop it happening… by any means necessary! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” Come and meet our feisty R.E.D. heroine, and find out why she’s such a hit with readers! From feeling like they were back in the eighteenth century, Daisy and Aidan are thrust very much into the twenty-first century. Answering a desperate call for help, they find themselves embroiled in a crazy chase across the county to stop a secret going public that must never hit the front pages. This time the puzzle is the whereabouts of a missing scarecrow, and the question of just how he intends getting ‘home’. Our story is different in another, but just as scary a way too. Our intrepid heroes are separated, and neither knows where the other is. For Aidan, an encounter with an old friend proves frighteningly enlightening, while Daisy discovers evidence he could well be in mortal danger, and there isn’t a lot of time to save his life… or the situation. Neither of them realise the secret they’re chasing is hardly the secret they thought it was. As an ever-increasing number of friends and enemies join the battle for the same pot of gold, the yellow brick road starts to look more like a four-lane highway, and the end of the rainbow seems to be ever further away. Who will be the first to make Emerald City in one piece? With the spoils just out of sight over the horizon, that’s anyone’s guess! ‘The Terrifying Tale of the Homesick Scarecrow’ is the fifth book in the hilarious Daisy series, and like the others, is not exactly what you might expect!
