Murder At The Expo P Austin Heaton

Sadie Brown is a strong female character, but she's not your usual sleuth. Sticking her nose where it doesn't belong, she'll take the reader on a fun romp to discover clues to the killer's identity. Sadie's no dummy, but she'll be as surprised as you when she comes face to face with the killer.
When the body of Dr. Asa Wolf is found impeccably laid out in the Botanical Building at San Diego's 1915 Panama-California Exposition, the curious death scene arouses suspicions of murder. Sure, Wolf was a well-respected surgeon and humanitarian, but what about his "other" life - the dark, sinister one? Did he have enemies? More than a few. And what's the real story behind the deaths of his first wife and unborn child? Join Miss Sadie Brown, aviatrix, newspaper columnist, and undercover snoop, as she unearths the truth. Follow as the clues lead you through historic Southern California and Tijuana leading to one twist after another. When Sadie trusts the wrong person, there's a final, face-to-face confrontation with a desperate murderer in a fiery conclusion you won't soon forget. The novel is a delightful and deadly romp full of quirky characters. "Murder at the Expo" has a touch of history, a bit of humor, and some dangerous adventures in this first-time debut of Sadie Brown, a woman who is compelled to stick her nose where it doesn't belong. A great read for fans of Molly Murphy and Maisie Dobbs. Think you can figure out "who done it?"
