Lady Clues and the Mystery of the Vanishing Valet
(2025)(The third book in the Lady Clues Case Files series)
A novel by Ava Ness
When Lady Clues arrives at the sprawling countryside estate of Lord and Lady Rhys-Jones for a grand gala ball, she expects nothing more than a weekend of fine company, lavish dinners, and perhaps a spot of matchmaking.
But when the Harringtons’ long-time valet, known for his discretion and loyalty, suddenly vanishes without a trace—and with him, a set of priceless family jewels—her sharp instincts tell her there's more to the story than a simple theft.
With her ever-astute assistant Miss Sharp by her side, Lady Clues begins investigating the valet’s peculiar disappearance.
As she delves into the lives of the estate’s residents and staff, she uncovers tangled secrets among the family and their guests.
The gardener seems to know more than he lets on, a visiting American businessman is overly interested in the estate’s history, and the family’s new chauffeur is suspiciously evasive about his past.
All the while, a cryptic note hidden in the valet’s quarters hints at a hidden treasure that could be worth far more than the jewels themselves.
In The Vanishing Valet, Lady Clues navigates a maze of deception, ambition, and long-buried secrets. As she unravels the mystery, she realises that the valet’s disappearance is part of a much larger plot—one that could shake the foundations of one of England's most esteemed families.
With wit, charm, and a determination to see justice served, Lady Clues must race to uncover the truth before the gala comes to an end...and before the real culprit slips away.
