Ticket Out is the first book in the Traffic Warden Mysteries series by Michelle Diener. If you have been searching for a new mystery book to read but aren’t sure where to start, be sure to check out this book that’s a great read whether you’re looking for something to entertain you during the summer or keep you engaged through the fall and the winter (or spring). Fans of Agatha Christie and other great authors will have a blast with this fast paced mystery that doesn’t let up until the end.

Main character Gabriella Farnsworth is working hard during the summer of 1963. She is a London traffic warden who has just gotten onto the job and is adjusting to all that comes with it. It’s not the easiest job in the world as she contends with random threats, swearing, and plenty of temper tantrums. Even though she’s mentally prepared herself for what the job entails, she has no reason to expect that one of her days on the job will include discovering a dead body.

Finding what appears to be a murder victim is apparently now one of the things that she can expect form her job. Gabriella didn’t really have much of an interest in becoming involved in the investigation– after all, she was just the person who found the body. She doesn’t have any special skills and simply having found the deceased individual means that she is connected to the case. In lieu of a main suspect, her name is already penciled in, simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Gabriella has no plans to get more engaged with the case, but she can’t help what is coming her way. She is shocked beyond compare when a few days later, she runs into another dead body that is located just a few feet away from where the first one was. She is becoming very worried. It looked bad enough the first time, but now this is the second time that she’s been the one to find a dead body.

Is it mere coincidence or is this happening on purpose? Is Gabriella getting supremely unlucky or is there something more to what is happening? She ends up being surprised when the New Scotland Yard discovers that the art gallery close to where the bodies were found is actually a front and they’re cooking up a new psychedelic drug there.

The killings start to slowly make more sense, and she’s relieved that the New Scotland Yard has a detective on the case who hopefully will able to find more clues that clear her name. What neither of them know yet is that the killer may have an agenda of their own that they are not yet privy to. But can Gabriella and the detective figure out what is going on before it is too late? Read the first book in Michelle Diener’s series to find out!

Return Ticket is the second book in the Traffic Warden Mysteries series by Michelle Diener. If you thought that the first book in this series was good, then check out this sequel and see what you think of it.

The time is autumn in 1963, and the city of London has a dark cloud that is literally hanging over it. The smog is so thick that you can barely see your hand in front of your face. While this is bad for the health of the city, it appears to be the ideal cover for a killer who is out there hunting on the streets.

Gabriella Farnsworth is still working as a traffic warden and somehow is not all that surprised when three young boys come up to her. It’s as though she already knows what they are going to say, and she is right. The boys come up to her and report that they have found a dead body.

Luckily Gabriella has someone in her life who can help her out with this. She is dating Detective Sergeant James Archer and when he gets the case assigned to him, he immediately gets to work. He starts putting together the patterns of the killer to see if he can start deducing who they are. Knowing what he does, James cannot help but become nervous each and every time that the city gets smoggy.

He has a reason to be nervous. The mist clearing means that new victims are found. The bodies are piling up out there, and he needs to work quickly to find this killer. Gabriella has street contacts that could give information that assists James with understanding that the murders are not just the beginning of a new crime spree—they’re picking up from where things left off.

The pair are going to have to go back to the past and find out more details about what went down in the Blitz. This is the best way to find the clues that they need in order to capture the killer. But time is running out. Can Gabriella and James figure out this case before London fills with smog and fog, or is this killer too clever to be caught? Read this book from Michelle Diener to find out!
