A winning combination of both intricate plotting and
nostalgic post-WWI English country setting, A Woman
Unknown
will appeal to fans of both classic murder mysteries in
the
vein of Agatha Christie as well as readers of historical
mystery series set in 1920s England, two popular
subgenres.
The Woman Unknown: Deirdre Fitzpatrick is married to a man
who wants to know where she really goes when supposedly
taking care of her sick mother and calls on the expertise
of
Kate Shackleton, amateur sleuth extraordinaire to
investigate.
The Gentleman: Everett Runcie is a banker facing ruin and
disgrace. His American heiress wife will no longer pay for
his mistakes, or tolerate his infidelity, and is seeking a
divorce.
The Murder: When a chambermaid enters Runcie's hotel room,
she is shocked to find that he is alone - and dead!
Suddenly
Kate is thrown into the depths of an altogether more
sinister investigation. Can she uncover the truth of her
most complex, and personal, case to date?
