The Widow's Oath: An Arabella Grey Mystery (Arabella Grey Mysteries) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A sealed chamber. A vanished heir. A vow that should never have been spoken.

Just weeks after returning from Elden Hollow, Arabella Grey is drawn back into danger when a former parlourmaid from Ashcombe Hall appears on her doorstep with a cryptic message: a sealed note in Richard Finch’s handwriting... dated five months after his presumed death in 1882.

Agnes Kersey begs Arabella to come to Ashcombe “discreetly.” Something beneath the estate was sealed away after Richard’s disappearance… and the Finch women called it The Widow’s Oath.

Before Arabella can ask more, Agnes vanishes... leaving behind only the note and a chilling clue: the initials R.F., carved where they never should have been.

As secret chambers are unearthed, and ledgers long buried come to light, Arabella begins to unravel a network of loyalty, coercion, and erasure. But exposing the truth may come at a cost even she isn’t prepared to pay.

The Widow’s Oath is the latest installment in the Arabella Grey Mysteries, a richly layered series of historical whodunits set in late Victorian and early Edwardian England. Each story is a standalone mystery featuring recurring characters and evolving emotional arcs. Perfect for fans of Tasha Alexander, Sherry Thomas, and Sarah Waters.
