Murder at Mullings
Synopsis
A 1930s housekeeper stars in &“an Agatha Christie–like whodunit with touches of Olde World England and a soupçon of romance&” (Booklist). In its three-hundred-year history, there has never once been a scandal at Mullings, ancestral home of the decent but dull Stodmarsh family. Until, that is, Edward Stodmarsh makes an ill-advised second marriage to the scheming Regina Stapleton, who insists on bringing her family's &“ornamental hermit&” to live on the estate. Suddenly everyone wants to visit Mullings to glimpse this mysterious figure. Strange but harmless, thinks Florence Norris, the family's longstanding housekeeper. But events take a sinister turn with the arrival of sudden, violent death—and suddenly the hermit doesn't seem so harmless after all… &“Fans of mannered English mysteries will likely not be disappointed.&”—Chicago Tribune &“Strong characters…this mix of romance and crime will appeal to a wide range of readers.&”—Booklist
