A Lady's Guide to Mischief and Murder
Book 3 of the Countess of Harleigh Mystery series
288 pages · First published 2020
Frances Wynn and George Hazelton travel to a country estate for the wedding of Frances’s sister Lily and Leo Kendrick, expecting a respite from London’s mysteries. Instead a string of accidents suggests someone is deliberately trying to stop the marriage, and the danger escalates into murder. The guest list is full of relatives, servants, and friends with private motives that turn a wedding house party into a closed circle of suspects. The third Countess of Harleigh mystery mixes Victorian manners, family tensions, and clever detection as Frances races to keep the bride and groom alive long enough to reach the altar.
