Helen Walsh doesn´t believe in love, fear, depression or hot drinks...

Utterly compelling, moving and very, very funny, The Mystery of Mercy Close is a story of courageous, vulnerable and wasp-tongued private investigator Helen Walsh. When a missing-persons case draws her into the dark, glamorous world of her dodgy ex, Jay Parker, Helen finds she´s seeing more of him and less of Artie Devlin, her sexy detective boyfriend. Caught between smart, stable Artie and chaotic, up-for-anything Jay - two different, equally enticing men - and plagues by her own black doubts, Helen finds she´s beginning to believe in something. But is it fear, or is it love?
