British Manor Murder (A Lucy Stone Mystery Book 23)

â€œReading a new Leslie Meier mystery is like catching up with a dear old friend.â€
â€”Kate Carlisle, New York Times bestselling author

Â
Itâ€™s a nippy spring in Tinkerâ€™s Cove, Maine, and Lucy Stone canâ€™t wait to join her friend Sue in England for a â€œHeads Up!â€ hat exhibition. But at Moreton Manor, privileged life isnâ€™t always tea and crumpets . . .
Â
Although the earl of the house and his sister are surprisingly accommodating to their jetlagged guests, Lucy feels uneasy after a fallen portrait sparks talk of a deadly family omen. The bad vibes come in quicklyâ€”snobby Aunt Millicent and her handmaiden Harrison unexpectedly drop by for the exhibition, and meals with the family are consistently tense. But real trouble begins when a body, bludgeoned by the chapelâ€™s gold-plated reliquary, is found in a hidden, sealed off room. Stranger still, the corpse is identified as Harrisonâ€™s son, Cyril.
Â
While Cyril wasnâ€™t exactly a gentleman, and itâ€™s unclear what business he had on the property, one thingâ€™s for sureâ€”the criminal is privy to Moreton Manor secrets. And Lucy has a hunch that the killer has been in her company all along, just waiting for a chance to make blueblood run red . . . Â
â€œCounts, countesses, and corpses highlight Lucy Stoneâ€™s trip across the pond . . . A peek into British country life provides a nice break.â€
