Murder at Hotel Marvelo

About this book

Hotel Marvelo: the ideal getaway for magical beings looking to escape the stresses and strains of everyday life! No magic can operate on its luxury premises so it’s the best place to relax and unwind in complete safety. 

That is, until the wizard Henry Gravelaxe is discovered dead in the spa.  

When it becomes clear that his death was no accident but caused by magical means, the proprietors, Caspian and Ida Marvelo, become the prime suspects as they are the only ones who can override the wardings that keep the hotel magic-free. 

Finnian, Juniper and Teddy Marvelo know their parents are innocent but proving it is going to be challenging. Fortunately, their determination and complementary talents make them a formidable team; the murderer had better watch out.   

With guests including a griffin, a banshee, a two-headed dog, an alchemist, a water sprite and a couple of witches, the suspect list in this magical, ‘cosy crime’ tale is unusual and very entertaining.  

Embracing both diversity and neurodiversity, the blended Marvelo family is truly inclusive and highlights the value of alternative skills and different perspectives when tackling problems.   

A unique and engaging whodunnit.
