That's not the only bad news.  The skeletal remains of a young woman are discovered in the hollow of a two-hundred-year-old elm tree.  When the state investigation stalls, Swamp Team 3 jumps into action.  There's no shortage of seedy suspects but solving the case proves challenging. As Fortune draws close to the truth, certain interested parties lash out, putting the lives of our three heroes in peril.
That's when the fireworks really begin. Revised and re-edited May 2021. Check out Stephen John's latest novel, Night Music or my latest Miss Fortune Novel, The Welly Wheel Murder.   THE BODY IN WITCH ELM (REVIEWS)The author does a great job in building this wonderful mystery thriller. The courageous PI Fortune is at the forefront while her sidekicks Ida Belle and Gertie deliver terrific humor and chemistry.
The ending is furious and stunning, keeping you riveted right up until the last word written. Five stars. Should be able to give more for this fascinating story. Love, love, LOVE this series!!!! I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. It was so nice to see Gertie get some male attention finally! KCWhat readers have said about Stephen's other Miss Fortune books: OTHER MISS FORTUNE BOOKS (REVIEWS) Of the many other authors who contribute to this series Stephen John is one of my favorites.
He continues with the main characters and weaves a series of intrigue and chaos into his story. I have now read a few of these stories by this author and this one I enjoyed most of all. The regular characters are back, joining a couple of newbies who prove to be interesting as well. Once again, the crime solving aspect of the story proves intriguing. It left me fulfilled and more than ready to read the next chapter in this particular writer's Miss Fortune setting.
Great stuff. Definitely a must read! A well-structured mystery, and probably the most literary of the Kindle Worlds Miss Fortune Mysteries I've read so far.  I loved this book as much as I loved the original books by Janet DeLeon. I wish he would write more. Check out The Welly Wheel Murder: Gertie decides to face an old nemesis at the Annual Alligator Festival Triathlon competition. Fortune and Ida Belle tag along for support.
When they arrive, they stumble on an unsolved murder that took place two years earlier. When Fortune meets a shady character with an agenda and a motive for murder, the Swamp Team 3 jumps into action. They receive help from a colorful local P. I. with sharp wits, unsuspected talents and a taste for nice things.  As they dig deeper into the mystery, a conspiracy unfolds that leads them into a deadly, dark world.
The Welly Wheel Murder is filled with twists and turns, funny banter and outrageous situations.
