...
teur sleuth Judith McMonigle Flynn in this charming Bed-and-Breakfast mystery from beloved New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mary Daheim.
When Joe’s conniving ex-wife Vivian and her latest husband, Lord Plumbsley, suddenly show up at the B&B, they’re accompanied by an entourage, which includes three other couples who immediately raise Judith’s hackles. But while she’s suspicious of these unwanted guests, Judith doesn’t know that the Plumbsleys and their hangers-on have nefarious plans for the inn that will ensnare her and her husband, Joe.
When the guests’ real estate agent is murdered, the clues all point to the Flynns. To clear their names—and save Hillside Manor—Judith and Joe will have to outsmart and outcon a gang of clever and determined criminals with more than murder on the agenda.
