About A Very Elegant Murder

"Set amidst the picturesque Cotswolds, Hamnett Hall Hotel is known for its elegance, charm, and the annual spectacle of its Halloween Ball--a night of glamour and revelry. But this year's celebration takes a dark turn when Mrs. Olivia Fortesque collapses mid-waltz, her heart giving out at the stroke of midnight. Her untimely death sparks whispers of foul play, as Olivia had yet to finalize her will, leaving a fortune in limbo and potential heirs vying for a share. With rumors of murder swirling, Detective Inspector McKay arrives from Oxford to investigate. But it's the shrewd Miss Busby and the ever-determined Mrs. Adeline Fanshawe who may hold the key to unraveling the truth, as they delve into the secrets hidden within the stately walls of Hamnett Hall. A genteel mystery unfolds, where nothing is quite as it seems"--Page [4] of cover.
