Murder at the Ice Ball
Leighann DobbsWhen a tragic accident turns out
to be murder, Lady Katherine finds herself embroiled in an investigation
tainted by lies and deception.
With conflicting witness
testimony, mysterious neighbors who saw the impossible, and a secret
someone would kill for, Katherine must dig into the dark side of polite
London society to uncover the truth.
Naturally, she has help.
Maybe too much help. Along with her loyal maid, Harriet, her pilfering
pug, Emma, and her Bow Street Runner friend Lyle, Katherine is joined by
budding investigator Pru Burwick and her eccentric Scottish fiancé,
Lord Annandale. Katherine wouldn’t mind their help so much if Annandale
didn’t keep bringing the insufferable Captain Wayland along.
When
the investigation takes a disturbing turn, Katherine gets a lead that
indicates someone close to her may not be telling the truth, and she
must make a tough decision. Protecting her loved one means keeping a
secret from her closest allies. Hopefully it does not also mean letting a
killer go free.
