A review by duchessofreadin
Murder at Everham Hall by Benedict Brown

5.0

When a down-on-his-luck writer is invited by a former girlfriend for a weekend away at the home of one of her friends, he is hoping that maybe inspiration will strike. Trying to write his second novel, Marius Quin has hit writers block, and the words are not coming. His editor is breathing down his neck, and nothing seems to be going well.

When their host is murdered, Marius teams up with his former sweetheart, Lady Isabella to solve the crime. There is a mass of potential killers, any one of whom could strike again. With the guests under suspicion, Marius is determined to get to the bottom of what happened.

What a great book! I had a hard time putting this one down. It was a great read, and although I wrongly guessed the killer, (I was rooting for Gilbert), it unfolded in such a way that was fantastically mesmerizing. I look forward to reading more from this author, and hope for many more books in this series!
