A Golden Age-style mystery meets a modern detective in a case that would challenge anyone's little grey cells.
This new series manages to be realistic without gore or profanity.
Death at Hill Hall is a STAND-ALONE story but also book 4 in the Brent Umber series.

Whodunnit? One of the family? - or one of the friends? - possibly a servant but then there are so many. Or was it the companion?
Whydunnit? Could be a guilty secret - or jealousy - or hatred. Or perhaps it was over the will - or the trust fund. It could easily be that - because there is such a great deal at stake.
Howdunnit? It's true there was no violence done except... Franklin did die violently, suddenly - But suicide? Not him and not like that.
But you see, murder is so unthinkable. It should never happen among the elite and wealthy Brewsters and never in such a prestigious and beautiful house. It must be suicide, then... unless it was the butler.
Brent interrupts his vacation to join an ongoing investigation at Hill Hall - the fabulous residence that is the Brewster ancestral home. His task is to get them to talk - to open up - and everyone reacts differently to his attempts.
And just when he begins to make progress, people’s stories begin to shift and twist. There are other strange things going on in the Brewster family, no less mystifying than the murder itself. Or was it suicide?

This is a STAND-ALONE story but also book 4 in the Brent Umber series.
