‘As delightful as the first book.’ – The Stories of Chantel Dacosta
Lady Alkmene Callender is back, but this time the crime is a little closer to home…
After the vicious murder of her relation, Lord Winters at his country estate, Lady Alkmene is intrigued to hear that the burglar found standing over his body might not be the murderer after all… Reporter Jake Dubois believes an innocent man has been imprisoned and turns to Lady Alkmene to go undercover in the Winters household and find the real killer among Winters’ own family.
Was the murder motivated by the precious stones that disappeared from Lord Winters' safe, or is there a sinister connection with the death of Lord Winters' first wife in India? As Lady Alkmene and Jake delve into dark family secrets, she isn’t sure who she can trust or who is telling the truth. Even the family connection might not be enough to save Lady Alkmene from becoming the next victim…
The twenties have never been so dangerous! Join Lady Alkmene on her hunt for missing heirs, stolen diamonds and legendary treasures in the Lady Alkmene Mysteries:
1. A Proposal to Die For
2. Diamonds of Death
3. Deadly Treasures
4. A Fatal MasqueradePacked with glamour, danger, eccentric characters and atmospheric locations, each book can be read as standalone and in random order.
