A novel by Leena Clover
Class lines are blurred when a baron's son is accused of killing his groom in this 1920s mystery.
The Nightingales are on a mission, set on solving a twenty year old murder to exonerate Lord Buxley. When the groom at a neighbouring estate is bashed to death, the young heir becomes a suspect. Summoned by her fast friend, Lady Bess rushes to Castle Morse with Lady Vicky in tow, only to find herself knee deep in a baffling mystery.
Despite warnings from a certain handsome Detective Inspector, they begin investigating the crime. Apparently, the dead man was involved in a controversy that divided the village, giving several men a motive to murder him. Can they separate the red herrings from the real clues to find out the truth?
Meanwhile, a surprise guest arrives at Buxley Manor, throwing both upstairs and downstairs in turmoil.
The second book in the series promises plenty of suspense, thrills and intrigue as the stakes rise along with the body count. If you like historical cozy mysteries featuring strong heroines, loyal servants, quirky aunts and delicious food, you will love Murder at Castle Morse.
