Book Description
When a seance reveals clues about a long-forgotten murder, Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt is skeptical but intrigued. A scientist-turned-parapsychologist claims a spirit told him of a woman named Madeline who was killed, dismembered, and stuffed into a box thrown into the ocean near a popular beach. Unwilling to dismiss the outlandish story, Colt discreetly dispatches his men to investigate. To his shock, divers discover a decayed wooden box containing over 200 human bones...the fragmented remains of the alleged victim. Though Colt refuses to believe in spirits, he can't ignore that a supernatural tip-off has uncovered a decades-old crime. This thrilling mystery will keep readers guessing as Colt pursues the cold case, questioning how a paranormal prophecy could uncover a body yet yield no clues about the motive or murderer.

A Lady's Guide to Gossip and Murder

Publisher: Kensington
ISBN: 1496716914
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
The adventurous Countess Harleigh finds out just how far some will go to safeguard a secret in Dianne Freeman’s latest witty and delightful historical mystery . . . Though American by birth, Frances Wynn, the now-widowed Countess of Harleigh, has adapted admirably to the quirks and traditions of the British aristocracy. On August twelfth, otherwise known as the Glorious Twelfth, most members of the upper class retire to their country estates for grouse-shooting season. Frances has little interest in hunting—for birds or a second husband—and is expecting to spend a quiet few months in London with her almost-engaged sister, Lily, until the throng returns. Instead, she’s immersed in a shocking mystery when a friend, Mary Archer, is found murdered. Frances had hoped Mary might make a suitable bride for her cousin, Charles, but their courtship recently fizzled out. Unfortunately, this puts Charles in the spotlight—along with dozens of others. It seems Mary had countless notes hidden in her home, detailing the private indiscretions of society’s elite. Frances can hardly believe that the genteel and genial Mary was a blackmailer, yet why else would she horde such juicy tidbits? Aided by her gallant friend and neighbor, George Hazelton, Frances begins assisting the police in this highly sensitive case, learning more about her peers than she ever wished to know. Too many suspects may be worse than none at all—but even more worrying is that the number of victims is increasing too. And unless Frances takes care, she’ll soon find herself among them . . . “Engrossing . . . Freeman takes a witty look at Victorian polite society. Historical mystery fans will be delighted.” —Publishers Weekly
