The Scarlet Wench M K Graff

In the third Nora Tierney Mystery, American writer Nora awaits the arrival of a traveling theatre troupe who will perform Noel Coward's farce BLITHE SPIRIT at Ramsey Lodge in England's Lake District. Her son now six months old, Nora must juggle parenting with helping her friend Simon Ramsey run the lodge. She's also hoping to further her relationship with the only lodge guest not in the cast: Detective Inspector Declan Barnes, ostensibly there for a hiking trip. When a series of pranks and accidents escalate to murder, Nora realizes her child is in jeopardy and determines to help Declan unmask a killer. Written in traditional British mystery style, this contemporary novel features chapter epigrams that are lines from the play. The series has been compared to Agatha Christie with a modern twist, and won Chanticleer Media's award for Best British Mystery.
