Elephant in the Room is the eighteen book in the Mysteries of Cobble Hill Farm Series.
A house call to care for an injured horse leads Dr. Harriet Bailey-Knight to the imposing manor owned by siblings Clifford and Edwina Castlegate. She is just wrapping up her visit when a housekeeper rushes in to alert Lady Edwina that her valuable silver elephant statue has been stolen! All eyes are on Pierre Aubert, a skilled craftsman who has just left the manor in a huff. Could he have taken the statue in retaliation for a bad business deal…or for some other nefarious reason?
When Harriet learns the complicated history between Pierre and the Castlegates, she’s suspicious that the accusations against him are a little too convenient. With her eyewitness account being the key to the case, she can’t stand by and watch Pierre go to jail if there is a chance he is innocent. Can Harriet unravel the truth, clear Pierre’s name, and bring the real perpetrator to justice?
