Welcome to Cozy Mystery Week! And Happy New Year!
Author Lucy Lyons is more than just a cozy mystery writer. Her book, highlighted in this episode, The Finding Machine, also has sci-fi elements in the story that elevated this book into such a fascinating read. And to top it all off, it's set in the 90s so the nostalgia just makes this book bloom brilliantly!
About the book:
One grey, winter morning, Alex inherits a mysterious invention from her late father. The Finding Machine solves mysteries. And contains a big one, too. The question is...why did her dad build it, and who was he trying to find?
It’s 1998, and Alex Martin’s life is falling apart. She’s fast approaching the big 3-0, with her dreams of making it as an artist in shreds. Her handsome housemate Antony’s moving on to better things while she’s stuck in a dead-end job, touch-typing for a living like a 1950s pool secretary.
The Finding Machine changes everything. But the biggest mystery of all lies deep within its wiring — the unsolved disappearance of a little girl, dating back seventy years.
What happened to the girl, all those years ago? Who was she?
Alex is going to need Antony’s help if she’s to join the dots and solve the case. But as dark family secrets are revealed, will the Finding Machine bring them together…or push them further apart?
