When Rip Van Winkle disappeared in that old colonial tale, was his over-worked wife suspected of murder? What about Cinderella—did she get on in the castle like everyone said, or was that fairy tale just fiction? These questions and more in the mystery of faulty expectations and quirky twists. Stories include: EVER AFTER: When the fairy tale ended long before intended, Cinderella wasn’t the only one without a happily-ever-after. ALL THE LUCK: Things went from good to perfect when she won a honeymoon trip with a raffle ticket . . . except for what happened next—is she suspect, or victim? MRS. VAN WINKLE: When a lazy husband disappears, the colonial constable discovers just why the wife is always the first to be suspected. THE SENSIBLE BRIDE: A marriage of convenience, but when one fortune weds another, is it a marriage or a merger? THE FAMILY WE CHOSE: Bad family, so leaves for years, comes home to a failing inheritance—of course, she’s a suspect for what happened next.
