When a body turns up beside the tracks in rural Winchester, Detective Sergeant Henry Stafford braces for another long weekend cut short. But when Toronto police report a second death-an older vagrant found in a freight car from the same train-the coincidences become impossible to ignore. As Stafford, Detective Constable Randy Travers, and rookie Margaret Fenshaw follow the evidence, they uncover connections reaching from a Montreal tavern to a small-town shed-and to a man who appears alive but claims to remember nothing. What begins as a straightforward investigation turns into a puzzle of mistaken identity, fractured families, and lost time. Between shifting truths and fragile loyalties, Stafford must separate illusion from reality before tragedy repeats itself. Vagabond Illusion is Book 5 in the DS Henry Stafford Mystery series-a sharp, character-driven police procedural blending small-town humour, human drama, and the quiet complexities of life and loss in 1980s Ontario. Readers who enjoy Louise Penny, Giles Blunt, and Maureen Jennings-smart, character-driven mysteries set in familiar Canadian landscapes will enjoy DS Henry Stafford, his family and his team.
I was born in the Laurentians of Quebec, in the year when "Perry Mason" first made its debut on TV and when Slinky and Hula Hoops were popular toys! And yes, the TV set was in black & white! My interest as a writer revolves around history, genealogy and women's stories within those contexts. I find that women have been understated in our historical narrative, and I am trying to correct that one story at a time. I am an avid reader of the traditional British mystery. Now retired, I live in Cornwall, Ontario, where I volunteer with various heritage, history and genealogical groups. My partners in crime are KC and Bella, my two rescue cats.
