The Tale of Castle Cottage by Susan Wittig Albert

Beatrix Potter's tales have bewitched readers for a century. Now, fans of all ages cherish Susan Wittig Albert's Cottage Tales mysteries, starring Miss Potter herself.

Beatrix is eager to marry her fianc , solicitor William Heelis. But with remodeling work at Castle Cottage, their future home, going at a snail's pace, Beatrix finds frustration when the building contractor fires his best carpenter, Mr. Adcock, for stealing. At the same time, Will is investigating thefts on other construction sites--an inquiry that comes to a screeching halt when Mr. Adcock is found dead.

Besides the construction debacle, there's another hurdle for Beatrix and Will to overcome: the Potters have yet to give their blessing on the marriage. And when Beatrix's brother decides to tell their parents about his own decade-long secret marriage, Miss Potter knows that any chance she had of finding her own happy ending is about to be destroyed.
