Minneapolis with her young charge Eddy, Viscount Trent, when she discovers a dead body. Unconvinced when the death is pronounced an accident, Flora starts asking questions, but following threats, a near drowning and a second murder, the hunt is on for a killer. Time is running out as the Minneapolis approaches the English coast. Death at the Abbey When Flora Maguire receives an alarming telegram informing her of her father’s tragic death in a riding accident, she races back from London to her childhood home. But when Flora and her new husband, Bunny, get to Cleeve Abbey – where she was once Governess to Eddy, Viscount Trent, and her father was butler to Earl Trent – it’s all is not well. Flora’s intention was to bury her father next to Lily, her mother, who sadly passed away when Flora was a small child. But it turns out that a mystery surrounds the whereabouts of Lily’s final resting place.

But when she is invited to tour St. Philomena’s Children’s Hospital in a deprived area near London’s newly-built Tower Bridge, she is shocked. Because there she uncovers a scandal with a dark heart – poor children are going missing from the hospital. The police seem either unable or unwilling to investigate, so Flora teams up with the indomitable matron of the hospital, Alice Finch, to try to get to the bottom of it. Soon Flora is immersed in the seedy, dangerous underbelly of criminal London, and time is running out to save the children. Will they get to them in time, or was their fate decided the day they were born... Death on a Train 1905 London is a heady mix of unimaginable wealth and simmering political tensions, and with war looming, all Flora Maguire wants is to keep her family safe. But when a body is found on a train bound for Paddington and her beloved charge Viscount Edward Trent is accused of murder, she's determined not to leave the investigation to the police. Flora has trodden the path of amateur sleuth before, but with so much at stake, this time it’s personal. Slowly the body of the victim starts giving up its secrets, and Flora and her husband Bunny become mired in a murky world of spies, communists and fraudsters. And with the police more sure than ever that Edward is their murderer, Flora must work fast, if she’s going to save him, and ensure a murderer doesn’t remain on the loose!
