Hoodoo House by Peter E. Fenton Instagram Tour

How far would you be willing to go to keep a secret?

When writer Malcolm Tull is discovered dead at his writing desk, all signs point to suicide. But Malcolm' s editor isn't so sure. There' s the matter of the man' s missing computer, a mislaid manuscript and the fact that he didn't seem the type to take his own life.

Declan Hunt and Charlie Watts are called into action and make their way to the mysterious Hoodoo House nestled on the edge of the Badlands of Alberta. Soon they are embroiled in a case involving blackmail, gay tricks and possibly even murder.

As the secrets of Hoodoo House come to light, Charlie discovers that his boss has been keeping a few secrets of his own, secrets that could impact their romantic relationship outside of the office. And before this investigation is done, Charlie will have to get to the truth, even if it means this might be his final case for Declan Hunt Investigations.

Reader Advisory: This book contains instances of violence and blackmail, and the death of a minor character.

Veronica – ☆☆☆☆
When the writer who lives in residence at Hoodoo House dies in questionable circumstances, his editor hires Declan to find the author’s missing laptop containing a manuscript and potential blackmail material.

I was excited to read Hoodoo House to see how a potential romance between Charlie and Declan was going to play out, but it was the mystery at Hoodoo House and a very clever 13-year-old boy named Henry that stole the show. I was surprised by a few of the twists and turns in the mystery and every new revelation had me turning the pages to find out more.

I loved the scenes told from young Henry’s point of view – they were so engaging. It was fun watching his excitement in helping Charlie and Declan while revealing the history and secrets of Hoodoo House. There is a great scene where Henry is left on his own in the house for the first time and it was a blast watching a 13-year-old have a little fun and freedom and get into a little danger.

While working the case, I was happy to get to know more about Declan’s personal life and to see a little romance between him and Charlie, they make a great couple. Hoodoo House was a great story. I can’t wait to see where to next for this pair and to experience more Declan Hunt Mysteries.

Henry often seemed wiser than a boy of his age. Although he was only her ward, she thought of him as the child she’d never had and due to their age difference, he had taken to calling her Gramma Carol.

She patted him on the shoulder. “Now, clear up your mess and set the table. Then you can go and tell Mr. Tull breakfast is ready.”

Henry quickly did as he was told.

Mrs. Cameron smiled as she looked around. The kitchen was her domain and nobody in Hoodoo House would dare to question anything she did here or, frankly, anywhere else on the property. She was the housekeeper, cook, scullery maid and holder of just about every other staff position one could imagine. She was as permanent a fixture in the building as the ancient stove or the kitchen’s large wooden prep table and she loved every scrap of wood and broken-down fixture in it…almost as much as she loved young Henry.

Writer Malcolm Tull, however…

An acrid smell hit her nostrils.

“Damn.”

She ran towards the oven. A cloud of smoke filled the air as she pulled out the tray of burnt baking.

“You damned fool,” she muttered to herself as she removed the biscuits and placed them on a cooling rack. She could scrape the char off the best ones and they’d be fine. The others she’d save for crumbling up for the chickens, or perhaps the centres could be used for stuffing. Either way, they would end up inside a chicken.

She checked the coffee perking in the pot and dabbed the fat off the freshly cooked bacon. She turned back towards the kitchen table and was startled to see Henry standing at the door, his eyes wide, his mouth open. It took him a moment to speak.

“There’s something wrong with Mr. Tull.”

“Well, what’s wrong?” she asked.

“He’s asleep on his desk and he’s lying in his own sick.”

Mrs. Cameron hurried to the writing room. Henry followed. She went to the desk and examined the prone man. She’d been around long enough to know when something wasn’t alive, but to be certain, she checked for a pulse—nothing.

“Henry, leave the room and don’t touch anything. And don’t come back in here.”

She scurried past the boy and headed back to the kitchen where she called the doctor… and the police.

Mann Hunt by Peter E. Fenton

How far would you be willing to go to finish the job?

Declan Hunt is having a bad week. His kidnapping case is showing little progress, his office assistant has left him on short notice, and his latest investigation has left him literally battered and bruised. But things change when he hires twenty-four year old Charlie Watts to help out at the office. They form an unlikely partnership trying to solve two seemingly unrelated cases whose threads begin to weave together when the missing person case turns to murder.

The investigation takes them from the dark alleys, gay bars and bath houses of Calgary, to the richest parts of the city during the world-famous Calgary Stampede.

But will they be able to discover who the killer is before another life is lost? And will Declan be able to solve the mystery of his relationship with Charlie who is clearly attracted to him — especially since it is evident that the attraction is becoming mutual?

Reader Advisory: This book contains scenes of violence, murder, and homophobia.

Veronica – ☆☆☆☆
Mann Hunt is the first book in the Declan Hunt Mysteries series by Peter E. Fenton, who is a new author to me. I took this book with me on holiday to a tropical island and it was a great choice for reading while relaxing on a sun lounger because of the engaging mystery and two lead characters that I loved.

When we first meet 24-year-old Charlie Watts, he is living at home with his parents and isn’t very confident or happy with where his life is at. But when Charlie takes a temp role with private investigator Declan Hunt, we get to see his skills and intelligence and what a good guy he is. From Declan’s point of view, Charlie is a life saver but Declan doesn’t see how much Charlie is crushing on him.

Declan and Charlie work on finding a missing accountant and then finding another missing man who turns up murdered. I enjoyed watching the two men work together to solve the cases and see Charlie grow in confidence. This story was fun even if it was dangerous at times. What I really loved was Charlie’s personal growth, and as the story came to a close, I was left excited for more books in this series to see what’s next for Charlie and Declan. A solid four stars from me.
