An Inch of Time

The case of a missing supermarket employee takes the British PI and penniless artist from Bath to the Island of Corfu in this “puzzling … dizzy” mystery (Publishers Weekly).

Chris Honeysett, an uninspired artist and lone proprietor of Aqua Investigations, leaps at the chance to leave his cold and damp rural cottage in Bath, England for the cozy warmth of Corfu, Greece. The job comes at the behest of a supermarket magnate whose most valued team member, Kyla Biggs, has disappeared while on holiday on the sunny Greek island. All Honeysett has to do is bring his lightest Mediterranean summer wear, learn a little Greek, and find her. What could possibly go wrong?

For starters, he looks up his old art teacher, Morva, who seems to have a stalker intent on killing her. On top of that, locals go strangely quiet when it comes to Kyla. For Honeysett, this all-expense-paid “vacation” is looking more dangerous by the minute. But for readers—“who wouldn’t want to spend a fortnight in Corfu with the droll Honeysett and his chums?” (Kirkus Reviews).
