Description

|
|
|
On a mild September evening in 1805, at his family's Bellfield Hall estate, Richard Montague dances with his fiancée Catherine during their engagement party. Then a strange man appears at Richard's shoulder and appears to communicate something to him. Breaking off their engagement on the spot, Richard rushes off to speak to his father, and is never seen again. Distraught, Catherine sends for her spinster aunt, Miss Dido Kent, who has a penchant for solving mysteries. "In the Miss Marple tradition, Dido observes the residents of Bellfield Hall closely, questions the servants, and interviews local shopkeepers. Excerpts from letters the likable Dido writes to her sister further illuminate her sleuthing methods. Several red herrings keep the reader and Dido guessing. Regency fans will look forward to the next installment."—Publishers Weekly
