MURDER ON CHECK-OUT DAY: A 1920s Bed and Breakfast Cozy Mystery (Bramble House Murder Mysteries) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A house full of guests. A fortune about to change hands. And one who never meant to leave.

Verity Crane has run Bramble Inn through storms, scandal, and worse, but she has never once had every room booked at the same time, by the same family, for the same unhappy reason. The Norwoods have gathered to sign away the ancestral hall on the hill, and Julius Norwood, the last of them to hold any real power over the rest, intends to read a codicil to his will on the morning everyone is set to check out.

He never gets the chance.

Found dead in his room with his trunk already packed for departure, Julius takes his family's secrets to the grave, and leaves Verity with a house full of suspects who all have a train to catch. The local constable is pulled away on other business, which means it falls to Verity, her ever-faithful corgi Huck, and her own trained eye for a false document to hold six grieving, lying relations under one roof long enough to find out which of them poisoned the tea.

Somewhere between a burned will, a missing pen, and a threat slipped under her own bedroom door, Verity realizes she is no longer just keeping the peace. She is running out of time before the killer boards that ten o'clock train and disappears for good.

Written for fans of cozy mystery books who love an English village, a determined amateur sleuth, and a clever fair-play whodunit, Bramble Inn follows another country house murder with unexpected twists, a loyal dog underfoot, and clues that slowly come together in Book 4 of this British cozy mystery series.

Pour the tea, lock the doors, and settle in. Check-out day has never been more mysterious.
