Blood Will Tell: Dorothy Martin Series, Book 17
(Adobe EPUB eBook, OverDrive Read)
Dorothy Martin isn't overly enthusiastic when her husband, retired police detective Alan Nesbitt, invites her to accompany him to a conference in Cambridge, picturing cramped student accommodation. But St Stephen's turns out to be recently renovated, and, bolstered by en suite facilities, Dorothy is looking forward to exploring the historic and beautiful city. It is not long, though, before disaster strikes: lost in the maze of college buildings, Dorothy stumbles into a laboratory . . . and is shocked to find what looks like a pool of blood on the floor. She flees, to fetch help, but when Alan checks it out, there is nothing to be found. Was she mistaken? Or has a terrible crime been committed? Dorothy, who can never resist a puzzle, determines to find out.

Dams’s delightful 17th Dorothy Martin mystery (after 2015’s The Gentle Art of Murder) takes the American schoolteacher and her retired policeman husband, Alan Nesbitt, to a police conference in Cambridge, England. While exploring (the fictitious) St. Stephen’s college in the historic town, Dorothy gets lost and winds up in a supposedly locked science lab, where she spots a pool of blood on the floor. When she returns with help, the floor is completely clean, and Alan questions whether Dorothy really saw anything amiss. A determined Dorothy persuades friendly local detectives to look into the matter, though it appears at first that the incident was a student prank involving a lab animal. When Dorothy’s snooping leads to a dirty scalpel that’s later proven to be covered in human blood, the plot thickens. Anglophiles will relish every aspect of St. Stephen’s and its gorgeous Cambridge surroundings. Agent: Kimberley Cameron, Kimberley Cameron Agency.

Dorothy Martin, a retired schoolteacher living in England (she's married to a retired British cop), always seems to be in the wrong place at the right time. Of all the people who could have found blood on a floor in a university, it has to be Dorothy. And when she goes to find someone to take a look at the blood, it's gone by the time she returns to the room. If you're a regular reader of this always engaging series, you'll know Dorothy won't just shrug it off; she'll dig, pester, and follow the tiniest clues until she finds out why the blood was there, whose it was, and why someone would have cleaned it up. Dorothy is an immensely likable amateur sleuthalthough by now, after more than 15 books, she might as well hang out a shingle and turn proand the stories are intriguing, suspenseful enough to keep us turning pages but not so elaborate that we're tempted to give up in frustration. A new entry in this series is always welcome for fans of fictional amateur sleuths.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
