A Case of Kidnap (Donald & Gamble Mystery #3) Release Date: July 30, 2026

Coming Soon

A missing husband, and two detective wannabes.
When Helen Dawson’s husband Billy is dragged from his own home by men claiming to be police, there’s just one problem: the police deny arresting him and have no idea where he is. Desperate, Helen turns to the only people who ever helped her, Katie Donald and her partner, the charming, mostly reformed, Harvey “Flutter” Gamble.
Working out of a now defunct local newspaper office with little money and a permanently dozing dog, the pair soon learn that Billy Bumble, petty thief, gentle soul, and a sandwich short of a picnic, has stumbled into something far darker than anyone expected.
To find Billy before it’s too late, Flutter must climb a dark hill and get dangerously close to his own past.
As always with Katie and Flutter, tea is optional, but trouble is guaranteed.

Why readers love Donald & Gamble Investigations:

  • The Perfect Partnership: Enjoy the slow-burn chemistry, sharp wit, and banter between the independent, sharp-tongued Katie and the charmingly flawed Flutter.
  • Quirky & Memorable Cast: From a bumbling kidnap victim who volunteers at an old folks’ breakfast club to a flamboyant, gun-toting local godfather uncle in a customized Range Rover, the characters jump off the page.
  • Atmospheric British Setting: Set in a perfectly realized English town where cozy village charm hides dark, gripping secrets.
  • The Perfect Blend of Genres: Combining the fast-paced suspense of a psychological thriller with the dry humor and heart of a traditional British mystery.
