Murder at Hambledon Hall

About the book

The peaceful atmosphere of a countryside gathering is shattered when the gamekeeper is found dead from a gunshot wound. The question remains: was his demise the consequence of recent missteps, or hidden truths surfacing?

Originally looking forward to a pleasant weekend with her family at Lord and Lady Kershaw's grand estate, Cleo is now consumed with finding the culprit behind the murder. Facing the inadequacy of the local authorities who quickly attribute blame to a missing man, she suspects Lord Kershaw's interference. Despite her uncle's objections, Cleo turns her focus towards the earl and his relatives as the possible perpetrators.

With her suspects gathering at the Mayfair Hotel after the conclusion of the country retreat, Cleo seizes the opportunity to dig deeper into the case. However, what she uncovers only adds to her unease. The gamekeeper's reputation for charming young women extends from the lowliest servant to the highest noblewoman, raising further suspicions.

Meanwhile, the hotel staff carry their own share of hidden truths. Amidst shifting alliances, Cleo relies on her friends more than ever to untangle the web of both past and present mysteries.
