SYNOPSIS
A little music, a little dancing, a little murder at the spring ball.
England, 1925. After years shut away from the world, former detective Lord Edgington of Cranley Hall plans a grand ball to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday.
But when someone starts bumping off members of his scheming family, the old man enlists his teenage grandson to help find the killer, before one of them is next.
The mismatched duo must pick the culprit from a gaggle of preening playboys, scatter-brained spinsters and irate inspectors in this Agatha-Christie-style whodunnit that will have you racing to spot the killer.
With a cast of eccentric suspects (both upstairs and down) and an adorable golden retriever along for the ride, “Murder at the Spring Ball” is a warm-hearted murder mystery full of intrigue, humour and adventure.
REVIEW
I have read a number of Brown’s works and they have all been enjoyable. The fun part of this series is watching Lord Edgington teach his Grandson, “Chrissy” the finer points of detective work
Although there are fifteen novels and two novellas in the Lord Edgington Investigates series, each can be read as a standalone.
I received this book free from the author, publisher, or other source. My only obligation is to provide a fair and honest review.
