Beautiful Farfield Castle is opening its grounds for a party, and everyone in Saxford's invited. But as the champagne flows, the owner takes a fatal fall. Fortunately, amateur sleuth Eve Mallow is on the case!
When novelist Julian Fisher buys Farfield Castle to turn the charming old building into a writers' retreat, he wants the neighbours onside. But he has his work cut out: Saxford St Peter locals tried to buy the castle for the village, and are furious that only the very rich will be able to enjoy it.
At the lavish launch party, Fisher treats the villagers like royalty, but Eve Mallow is distracted by the tension in the air. She watches as Fisher's wife Kitty argues with several guests, almost in tears, before she disappears altogether...
Later that evening, when Kitty is found dead in the castle's icehouse, it's quickly proved to be no accident. With dozy Detective Palmer on the wrong track, Eve can't resist getting involved. Convinced the answers lie inside Farfield Castle, Eve questions an overly inquisitive journalist, Kitty's less-than-loyal husband, and his prickly PA.
But when it emerges that a family heirloom and Julian's computer both went missing on the night of the party, Eve is sure that solving the theft will solve the murder. Who is behind this deadly tale... and can Eve find the killer before she gets written off?
A completely charming English cozy mystery, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin and J.R. Ellis.
