Why Kill A Countess?

Harriet Honeywood anticipates a delightful stay in the country when she and her soon-to-be-husband Aubrey, Viscount Talisker are invited down to Bellincourt, the country estate of the Dowager Countess, Lady Gracedale. But instead of tranquility and the opportunity to steal some time with her beloved, Harry finds the atmosphere of the house to be singularly tense. Nobody seems to like each other in the least and grudges, both old and new are quick to surface. It is all most uncomfortable - especially for the luckless Mr. Charles Lampforth who has been lured down with the promise of an agreeable few days in the country - and discomfort turns to alarm when the Dowager Countess turns up dead. Will Harry, Aubrey and Charlie be able to unmask a brutal killer before they disappear back into Society? Or will the malice that walks in beautiful Bellincourt reach out to take even more lives?
