Detective Superintendent Ben Spence is called to Marlby
Manor when Lady Dinnister’s nurse companion dies under suspicious
circumstances. Was she the target or was the lady of manor the intended target.
Spence and his partner Inspector Laurel set out to find out if the accidents
that keep happening to Lady Dinnister are repeated attempts on her life.
The mystery is populated by a fascinating cast of
characters, any of whom could be the murderer. Will our detectives and their
team figure out what’s going on before another victim falls prey to the wily
criminal.
A most enjoyable English mystery, complete with lots of
atmosphere. I’ll look forward to my next Detective Spence read.
Five stars!
