A castle in the countryside—with a skeleton in a wardrobe.Can the unflappable Lady Marigold uncover a killer who's been in hiding for a decade—or will she become their next victim?

When her butler discovers human remains in her newly inherited English country estate, Lady Marigold Grey—former British spy and daring adventuress—is convinced a murder has taken place.

But when the local police decide Marigold's late uncle was the likely killer, she sets out to clear his name with the help of her fashion-loving German assistant, overly protective English butler and troublemaking terrier.

As she unravels the clues, Marigold's sure she's on the right track, but when a decadent dinner party turns deadly, she realises the killer not only knows she's on the case, they're determined to stop her—any way they can.

Suddenly Marigold's in a race to outwit and outsmart the killer, but that's not her only problem. The annoyingly handsome Inspector Gideon Loxley arrives to investigate—and he's not happy she's interfering in his case—again!

A light-hearted and charming 1920s cozy mystery featuring a smart, sassy sleuth, adorable dog, found family, high society, fashion and a will they or won't they, opposites attract romance. You'll be hooked from beginning to end reading the second book in the Lady Marigold's 1920s Murder Mystery series.
