“This series is always good for a little suspense; plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing.”

— Samantha, Cozy Tea Cottage

#GentlemenPreferDetectives When Maize’s ex-costar and fiancé Giulio Belloni is arrested for stealing her mother’s priceless gold jewelry box — once owned by Marilyn Monroe — Maizie believes Giulio’s been framed. As the thefts and suspects multiply, it seems Giulio’s enemies number more than his fans.

But when the police also accuse the Ginger Bombshell of robbery, where Some Like It Hot, Maizie can’t keep her cool. Will Maizie be able to prove Giulio’s innocence as well as her own? With stolen ice, Diamonds Aren’t a Girl’s Best Friend. And neither is a larceny conviction.
