The Complete Raffles Collection by E.W. Hornung
E.W. Hornung - 1984
Raffles, man-about-town, thief, and "finest slow bowler of his generation." With his partner in crime, Bunny Manders, Raffles preys on the rich, the greedy, and the unspeakably vulgar. His talents are exercised not only in London, but as far afield as Italy, Australia, and South Africa at the height of the Boer War. Throughout these exciting yarns the emphasis on panache, with intensifying suggestions of fallibility, goes to the heart of late Victorian attitudes and values.

The Amish Best Friend (Amish Country Mysteries Book 1)
Katie Fisher - 2017
Will she find them? Life in the small Amish community of Orthause, Pennsylvania is predictable to Hannah Zook. As the teacher of the one-classroom school, Hannah is happy with her life and relationship with Gott. The only question she has concerns Eli Reimer, the Mennonite man who wishes to marry her. Eli is the sort of man Hannah has always dreamed of marrying. But in order to marry him, she must give up her faith and join his. But when a man is found murdered, Hannah ends up with much more than romance on her mind. The victim’s wife Martha recently left him, and everybody knows why. Now she’s the number one suspect. Hannah knows her friend is innocent and will do everything to prove it. She is joined in her quest by her childhood friend, Abram, who quietly supports her even when others tell her to mind her own business. And as she works to solve the murder, Hannah might just find the answers to her prayers about her future–and he might have been under her nose the whole time. AUTHOR’S NOTE: This is a 61-page stand-alone story with an HEA, so no cliff-hangers.
