Solving Solvang: The Copenhagen Murders
Rainy morgen on Alisal Road, California's Danish burg begins to start and stir, as Mormor's oven begins to wake and warm
Dreessen's Bakery, long since awake, busies and bustles, so many treasures to bake
Kringle, dream cakes, butter rings, æebleskiver and kaffee
Morning treats so luscious and fine, "Hygge!" he might exclaim, the Old one once called Gorm
Yet the charmed life is not so placid, on Solvang's sunny field
Treachery and conspiracy hang palatably in the air
Like the arresting, hovering waft of Ingeborg's chocolate cloud
Mystery slowly peels, here and abroad, giving way to scandal, someone's fate is already sealed
Dagmar Dreessen, Solvang sixth-gen, for little does she know
In her Danish ancestors' pioneer town, this California København
Intrigue decants and patiently breathes, like a Fergalicious, prodigious red
Notes of saddle, pepper, smoky plum and murder float on the wind, the piquant mistral of mystery is just starting to blow
*Solving Solvang: The Copenhagen Murders is the working title of author Jennifer Susannah Devore's sequel - a murder mystery mis-en-scène in Solvang, California - to her contempo novel, The Darlings of Orange County.
