The first in a series of thrilling Golden Age-style
mysteries, set among the Mitford sisters, and based on a
real unsolved murder, by Jessica Fellowes, author of the
New York Times bestselling Downton Abbey
books.
It's 1920, and Louisa Cannon dreams of escaping her life of
poverty in London.
Louisa's salvation is a position within the Mitford
household at Asthall Manor, in the Oxfordshire countryside.
There she will become nursemaid, chaperone and confidante to
the Mitford sisters, especially sixteen-year-old Nancy, an
acerbic, bright young woman in love with stories.
But then a nurse—Florence Nightingale Shore, goddaughter of
her famous namesake—is killed on a train in broad daylight,
and Louisa and Nancy find themselves entangled in the crimes
of a murderer who will do anything to hide their secret...
Based on an unsolved crime and written by Jessica
Fellowes, author of the New York Times bestselling
Downton Abbey companion books, The Mitford
Murders is the perfect new obsession for fans of classic
murder mysteries.
