Bicycles, Barking & Murder

Summary

A major cycling event. A high-profile murder. Can the Little Old Ladies' Detective Agency stop a killer from riding away scot-free?

Leta Parker's fit-and-fifty reinvention in the Cotswolds continues rolling along fabulously. Happy among her new friends and talking dog and cat, the sharp-minded expat is delighted to learn the prestigious Tour of Britain will pedal through the quaint village next year. But everyone's excitement quickly crashes when the news is accompanied by a dead body.

Unconvinced when the police park the crime as a random act of violence, Leta teams up again with the Little Old Ladies' Detective Agency to push the investigation into high gear. But with those who knew the victim remaining tight-lipped, the silver-haired sleuths could be stuck in the peloton as a callous killer sprints away.

Can the whip-smart women gain ground on a murderer before the trail goes cold?
