Doakes (human) and Haig (leprechaun) are merchants, purveyors to the crown, but through a series of unusual circumstances become criminal consultants. They use detective skills and unexpected leprechaun powers to solve a series of baffling crimes in The Casebook of Doakes and Haig. Why would a Sioux Indian slay a gardener on an English lord's estate? Can Doakes and Haig prevent the murder of another leprechaun ...and should they? What is the real secret of Manoa, the fabled Lost City of Gold? Why would anyone be interested in stealing cats, especially Egyptian Maus?
These questions and more are answered in this collection of five stories and a novella by award-winning author Patrick Welch. Enthusiasts of mysteries, light fantasy and alternate histories won't want to overlook The Casebook of Doakes and Haig. It's the perfect remedy for a reader seeking a cure from the ordinary.
