A storm.
A secluded manor.
And a murder that refuses to stay silent.
When journalist Clara Finch accepts an assignment at the brooding Blackwood Manor, she expects whispers of scandal and fading grandeur. What she doesn't expect is the sudden death of Lord Blackwood, found in his locked study with a pistol at his side. Suicide, the family insists. But Clara sees what others overlook: a forged hand, a symbol of a raven clutching a key, and too many motives swirling in the shadows.
Trapped by the storm with a grieving widow, a bitter heir, a nervous business partner, and a butler who knows more than he says, Clara must untangle lies from truth before the killer strikes again.
Yet the raven-and-key mark is more than just a clue to this crime. It is a warning - one tied to mysteries darker and older than the manor itself.
Atmospheric, gothic, and clever, The Manor Secret is the gripping first novel in The Clara Finch Mysteries - a six-part whodunit series perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and classic detective fiction.
