Murder Midst The Diamonds
(2024)(Book 12 in the Dodo Dorchester Mystery series)
A novel by Ann Sutton
Diamonds are a girl's best friend. Murder isn't.
Love is in the air as Dodo Dorchester and Rupert Danforth prepare to announce their engagement. After a successful appointment with London’s premier jeweler, plans begin for the engagement party until murder strikes at the heart of their happiness and their dream ring becomes evidence in a deadly puzzle. Dodo’s dreams of a Times announcement and a fairy-tale celebration crumble faster than a dropped scone at high tea.
In a world where old money meets new, could the culprit be among London’s glittering social elite or is a notorious gang of international jewel thieves behind the bloodshed?
Now, instead of planning the engagement bash, Dodo is planning interviews with suspects—and there are plenty to choose from, as she is faced with untangling a web of deception that stretches from London’s criminal underground to the glamorous world of the West End.
Will she and Rupert ever be able to make their engagement official? Will Chief Inspector Blood put a spanner in the works? Will the murderer strike again before Dodo can figure it all out?
This thrilling new installment, of a beloved, charming and delightfully clever historical mystery series, is perfect for readers who adore a side of romance with their murder and a splash of scandal in their tea.
For fans of Rhys Bowen, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries and lovers of the Roaring Twenties, aristocratic amateur sleuths and romance-tinged mysteries.
