Publisher's Summary

December 1953

Hugo Hawksworth is on the tail of rogue Cold War agents at a top-secret government facility, while back home at Selchester Castle they're awaiting the arrival of the new earl - an American, the long-lost son of the murdered Lord Selchester.

The town of Selchester, rich in scandal and gossip, is unsure what to make of the earl or his teenage daughters, but they know that his sharp-tongued half-sister, Lady Sonia, furious at being deprived of her inheritance, won't be a merry guest over Christmas.

The new Lord Selchester can cope with the strangeness of English country life, but he hadn't expected stolen paintings - or a body in the hothouse.

What's the link between Hugo's investigations and the suspicious goings-on in the town and at the castle? And will he and his allies get to the heart of the mystery before the murderer gets to them?

Ok overall

Plot did not flow found it rather disjointed to listen to and had to back track to get the comings and goings consolidated.
Prefer other books by this author as they flowed better and even with twists and turns in the plots were easier to follow without backtrack ing. Over all not a bad book but a bit of a disappointment.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
