A Gem of a Problem

Emma Berry is devastated when she discovers her late husband’s questionable behaviour has reached out from the grave to threaten ruin for those nearest and dearest to her. She brought this threat to their doorstep by marrying the man, despite her family’s misgivings. Now she has one choice, and that is to sort out the matter herself.
But she is at least expecting the support of her brother-in-law. But when he not only downplays the danger but blames her for their troubles Emma has to wonder. Was he in the know?
Striking out on her own, Emma chases down every clue and forges through each dead end as the time she has ticks down. Then her father learns of what she’s doing and calls her home. Emma faces returning empty handed and heavy hearted, or desperately venturing one last foray. If only she can get Daniel on side all may yet be forgiven.

A Gem of a Problem is Book #2 in the Emma Berry Mystery series. If you enjoy historical cozy mysteries with friendship and family, and a touch of romance, you’ll love Irene Sauman’s outback adventure.
