Book Description
One wedding. Two feuding families. Three sneaky suspects. Daphne Jones has travelled with her cute-as-a-button camper Bluebell to the outback town of Little Bridges to officiate a wedding at a beautiful rural home. Such a perfect setting. But not so perfect people are determined to stop the union and before the day is done, a member of the bridal party ends up face down in the swimming pool. She's no detective nor a spring chicken, but Daphne does love a puzzle and her gut tells her this was no accident. Amid old family feuds, resentful relatives, and missing money, there are plenty of suspects, and none of them appreciates Daphne snooping in their business, but with a heart of gold and a way with words, this celebrant sleuth is not giving up. Unless the killer finds her first... The Daphne Jones Mysteries are later in life camping cozies with a travelling wedding officiant and a regional, small-town Aussie twist. A light and quirky story with a nosy main character.

Roping in best friend, Elizabeth, Daphne sets out to run her own investigation. Why was the deceased dressed in winter clothing on a summer's day? And why had she begged Christie to meet her late at night? With the police about to arrest Christie, Daphne races to find evidence to exonerate her, as well as lead to the real killer. Will the wedding be postponed and the wrong person arrested? Not if Daphne can solve the puzzle in time.

Book Description
Daphne Jones loves a romance and nothing makes her heart happier more than officiating a wedding. A remote park in a valley in the majestic Otway Ranges is the perfect setting for her clients to say, "I do". And even better is the prospect of spending the first night ever camping in their new caravan with her husband, John. But not everyone is there to celebrate with the newlyweds. After an unpleasant altercation during the reception, someone is found dead in the camping ground where all the guests are staying. And John is the prime suspect. Determined to prove his innocence and alarmed that the real killer is still out there, Daphne grabs her notebook and begins her own investigation. But the killer is among them and following her suspect is about to land her in a whole lot of trouble. The Daphne Jones Mysteries are later in life camping cozies with a travelling wedding officiant and a regional, small-town Aussie twist. A light and quirky story with a nosy main character. Time of Daph fits between Daph on the Beach and Till Daph Do Us Part but can be read on its own.
