Local motor entrepreneur Ed Chelm hires Ellie’s services as a private sleuth to solve an unusual murder – his own. Someone is planning to bump him off during the annual Melmersby Hill Race, and Ellie will need to use all her powers of detection to find out who before they strike.

But with Ed's colourful past, the list of potential assassins is a long one and, as the investigation takes a deadly turn, Ellie faces a race against time to solve a case that threatens to draw in anyone associated with the competition – even herself.

Ellie Blaine gets behind the wheel in a high-speed murder mystery of fast cars, race-track rivalry and revenge set in the full-throttle world of 1920s motor racing.

Ellie Blaine is a traditional, Golden Age Cozy Mystery series, packed with intrigue, diabolical villains, endearing friends, humour, emotion, a little romance and a real sense of history in the fascinating years following the Great War.
