A Lamplighter in Larkeney: A Twill and Billings Mystery, Paperback/Amelie Chea Butkus
It was supposed to be a vacation... After a lifetime of touring the world with his travel columnist father, Wendell Billings is sick and tired of perilous plots and exotic escapades. Which is precisely the reason he chooses Port Larkeney-a quiet, seaside town along the Irish cliffs. But for someone determined to have an uneventful holiday, an awful lot of things seem to be happening. Sure they were invited to a B and B shaped like an enormous Jalapeño, sure the guests seem more and more connected as time goes on...and several people go missing and suddenly a billionaire inventor appears in the midst of a dastardly plot involving one comatose brother, six guests, two robots, and a very very peculiar super weapon...there's still time for rest and relaxation, right? Alright, maybe things aren't quite so peachy. With the help of Katie Twill, a suspiciously sleepy small town detective with a penchant for disco, bell bottoms, and being utterly useless at the best of times, this entirely unSherlockian duo must work together to unravel the secrets of Port Larkeney before the secrets themselves escape forever.
