He can take up woodwork; maybe she'll learn to make jam? But the rural idyll they'd hoped for doesn't quite pan out when a dead body is discovered at their local prenatal class, and they find themselves suspects in a murder investigation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With a cloud of suspicion hanging over the heads of the whole group, Alice and her new-found pregnant friends set out to solve the mystery and clear their names, with the help of her troublesome dog, Helen. However, there are more secrets and tensions in the heart of Penton than first meet the eye. Between the discovery of a shady commune up in the woods, the unearthing of a mysterious death years earlier, and the near-tragic poisoning of Helen, Alice is soon in way over her head.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kat Ailes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250322707\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250322708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minotaur Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/09\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.33h x 6.46w x 1.07d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal Prepub Alert\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2023 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/02\/2023 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2024 pg. 30\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/02\/2024","brand":"Kat Ailes","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44202061070591,"sku":"9781250322708","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_590c00a8-426e-4605-b877-10e35657098c.jpg?v=1691492999","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-expectant-detectives-kat-ailes-9781250322708","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
