by David Ahern (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 20 ratings
The Madam Tulip Collection
Derry O'Donnell, out-of-work actress, moonlighting as Madam Tulip, fortune-teller to the rich and famous, finds money and secrets breed crime, mystery and danger.

"Hours of enjoyment, laugh-out-loud moments, nail-nibbling tension and just plain fun!" - Renaissance Writer
"...a fabulous new amateur sleuth!" - night owl reviews

The Madam Tulip Collection includes three full-length novels of mystery, humor and action:

Book 1: Madam Tulip
Spurred on by an ultimatum from her awesomely high-achieving mother, and with a little help from her theatrical friends, Derry embarks on a part-time career as Madam Tulip, fortune-teller to the rich and famous.But at her first fortune-telling gig - a celebrity charity weekend in a castle hotel - a famous rap artist dies.
As Derry is drawn deeper into a seedy world of celebrities, supermodels and millionaires, she finds herself trapped in a maze of intrigue, money and drugs. Derry's attempts at amateur detective could soon destroy her friends, her ex-lover, her father and herself.

"Quirky character driven plot told with an underlying dark humour...couldn’t put it down!" - mychestnutreadingtree

"A wonderful read for a raining Sunday afternoon curled up on the sofa with a hot chocolate and cuddle throw." - theaddictionofbooks

Book 2: Madam Tulip and the Knave of Hearts
When celebrity fortune-teller Madam Tulip is hired for an aristocratic engagement party in an English stately home, she’s drawn into an alien world of wealth, privilege and family secrets. Someone has been murdered, but who?

A countess once a chorus girl, a gambling earl and his daughters, a cultured and handsome art expert — all caught in a terrifying web of threats, murder and abduction.

"This is the new series I’m recommending to anyone who loves a humorous mystery!" - behindthewillows

“If you ever stumble upon a Madam Tulip mystery do not hesitate to give it a go! You won’t regret it!” – anachronist

Book 3: Madam Tulip and the Bones of Chance
A surprise role in a movie takes actress Derry O’Donnell to a romantic castle in the Scottish Highlands. But romance soon turns to fear and suspicion. Someone means to kill, and Derry, moonlighting as celebrity fortune-teller Madam Tulip, is snared in a net of greed, conspiracy and betrayal.
A millionaire banker, a film producer with a mysterious past, a gun-loving wife, a PA with her eyes on Hollywood, a handsome and charming estate manager — each has a secret to share and a request for Madam Tulip. As Derry and her friend Bruce race to prevent a murder, she learns to her dismay that the one future Tulip can’t predict is her own.

“The Madam Tulip series brings something new to the crime/adventure genre … that we should all be diving into.” – paperbackreadingandmore

“The author’s writing is brilliant and colourful, the plot enjoyable, and Derry is just the most endearing character.”
“Perfect for a rainy day, Madam Tulip and the Bones of Chance is the ultimate cozy mystery.” – readsandreels

Book 4, 'Madam Tulip and the Serpent's Tree' is aso available from Amazon in Kindle and paperback.

    I thoroughly enjoyed these amusing and gripping mysteries. The characters are interesting and mostly believable if you believe in esp/ fortune telling/ fate. I can't help wishing that Bruce and Derry will have some more adventures, asap!
