Produktbeschreibung

'Wonderful read and a great whodunit with all the intriguing clues and red herrings... I highly recommend this as a great read if you're looking for a murder mystery, a bit of humour and an escape' Reader review ¿¿¿¿¿

'Mrs MacBain, thank god it's you.' Without another word, he grabbed her arm and pulled her into the room, locking the door behind them. Mrs MacBain turned around, clearly offended at being manhandled, but then gasped, 'Is that blood?'

Loch Down Abbey is full of guests for a Highland Ball. Including several uninvited members of the Inverkillen clan, the Abbey's former residents. Housekeeper Mrs MacBain thinks her biggest challenge will be finding suitable rooms for everyone and keeping the peace at cocktail hour.

Until the morning after the ball, when one of the guests is discovered inside the Abbey's library - as dead as a doornail.

Who would have had motive to want them dead? And how did they manage to commit their crime and escape while keeping the door locked from the inside?

With an Abbey full of suspects and secrets, it is down to Mrs MacBain to catch the killer before they strike again...

A brilliantly twisty and deliciously witty Golden Age murder mystery to transport you to 1930s Scotland. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Janice Hallett and Richard Osman.

Autorenporträt

Beth Cowan-Erskine is an American expat who married into a mad Scottish family with their own tartan and a family tree older than her home country. Using them as inspiration, she wrote her first novel during the coronavirus lockdown, hoping it would be enough to get her disinvited from the annual family walking holiday. Sadly, it backfired and led to long discussions of who would play whom in the film. When not writing, she owns an interior architecture and design studio in the Cotswolds.
