Beschreibung
A suspicious death ignites a blame game within a family full of secrets...

When an Edinburgh villa goes up in flames, grumpy DI Russell McCord is called in to investigate. Someone died in the fire, and it looks like murder.

His spirits are lifted, however, when sassy magazine journalist Amy Thornton shows up, eager to solve another case.

The victim, Victoria Norval, was the owner of a marketing company. Her final days were marked by highly erratic behaviour. And the night before she died, she announced her intention to file for divorce.

Naturally, McCord's suspicions fall on the husband, but Amy finds others might have wanted Norval gone, including a secret lover and two step-children.

A battle of wits with a family full of schemers ensues. Who will win?

BRIGHT SPARKS is the fifth standalone mystery in this light-hearted mystery series by Traude Ailinger. The full list of books is as follows:

1. NEAR MISS
2. HIGH HAND
3. LAST TRAIN FOR MURDER
4. SHIFTING ICE
5. BRIGHT SPARKS
6. FICKLE FORTUNES
7. PARTING WORDS

If you like fiction by Nita Prose, Sabina Manea, and M. C. Beaton, you'll love these books.

Über den Autor
After graduating from Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen in 1994 with a degree in Latin and German Language and Literature, which proved rather unhelpful in the job market, Traude Ailinger decided to follow her lifelong affection for all things British and took up residence in Scotland in search of love and adventure. This move resulted in a Diploma in Translation (with distinction in the literature section) from the Chartered Institute of Linguists, London (CIOL) and, in quick succession, three children. After being a housewife for several years, Traude had murder on her mind and wrote her first mystery novel Flammenschatten, which was published in 2015 by the respected German Gmeiner Verlag. Meanwhile, she continued to work as Teacher of EAL (English as an Additional Language) at Strathallan School in Perthshire. Having lived longer in Scotland than in Germany, it felt right to write a mystery novel in English, set in atmospheric Edinburgh. Thus, NEAR MISS was created, soon to be followed by more adventures of journalist Amy Thornton and DI Russell McCord.
