Produktbeschreibung
A woman searches for her ailing aunt's hidden riches in this "perfect blend of history, mystery, family secrets and suspense" (Kate Braithwaite, author of The Puzzle of Nelly Bly). In 1929, Blanche Magruder lies alone in a home for the elderly and infirm without a penny to her name, suspected of being of unsound mind. Meanwhile, her house, a crumbling ruin in the Georgetown section of Washington, DC, is regularly ransacked by thieves looking for a fortune believed to be hidden there. When distant niece Margaret O'Keefe is made executor of Blanche's estate, she becomes embroiled in the treasure hunt, embracing it as a welcome escape from her own financial and marital woes. But as Margaret continues to investigate, family mysteries begin to unravel. Soon, she begins to question whether Aunt Blanche is a senile fool, and whether she really belongs in the home. But can she find out where the lies end and the truth begins? Shrouded in gothic undertones, The Spinster's Fortune is a strange and twisting journey through tangled webs of family deceit.

Autorenporträt
Mary Kendall is first a reader of all books across the genres and, second, a writer of fiction. She brings her background in history-related fields to her writing along with some Celtic story-telling genes. Fueled by black coffee and a possible sprinkling of fairy dust, she tends to find inspiration in odd places and sometimes while kneading bread dough. She has two published novels, The Spinster's Fortune (historical mystery) and Campbell's Boy (coming of age, historical fiction). Her third novel, Bottled Secrets of Rosewood, is a contemporary gothic thriller to be released in Summer 2024. She also has three short stories published in dark fiction anthologies for charity.
