Women's Fiction Historical
Amory Ames is a wealthy young woman who questions her
marriage to her notoriously charming playboy husband, Milo.
Looking for a change, she accepts a request for help from
her former fiancé, Gil Trent, not knowing that she’ll soon
become embroiled in a murder investigation that will test
not only her friendship with Gil, but will upset the status
quo with her husband. Amory accompanies Gil to the luxurious Brightwell Hotel in
an attempt to circumvent the marriage of his sister,
Emmeline, to Rupert Howe, a disreputable ladies’ man. Amory
sees in the situation a grim reflection of her own
floundering marriage. There is more than her happiness at
stake, however, when Rupert is murdered and Gil is arrested
for the crime. Amory is determined to prove his innocence and find the real
killer, despite attempted dissuasion from the disapproving
police inspector on the case. Matters are further
complicated by Milo’s unexpected arrival, and the two form
an uneasy alliance as Amory enlists his reluctant aid in
clearing Gil’s name. As the stakes grow higher and the line
between friend and foe becomes less clear, Amory must decide
where her heart lies and catch the killer before she, too,
becomes a victim. Murder at the Brightwell is a delicious novel in which
murder invades polite society and romance springs in
unexpected places. Ashley Weaver’s debut is a wonderful
testament to the enduring delight of the traditional mystery.
