“Well, darling, who do you suppose will turn up dead this
time?” With two murder investigations behind them and their
marriage at last on steady ground, Amory and Milo Ames
intend to winter quietly in Italy. The couple finds their
plans derailed, however, when Amory receives an urgent
summons to the English countryside from her cousin Laurel.
At Lyonsgate, the country house of Laurel’s friend Reginald
Lyons, Amory and Milo are surprised to discover an eccentric
and distinguished group of guests have also been invited,
led by the notorious socialite Isobel Van Allen. After years of social exile, Isobel has returned to England
to write a sequel to her scandalous first book, the thinly
fictionalized account of a high society murder at the very
country house to which the Ameses have been called. Her
second incriminating volume, she warns the house’s
occupants—all of whom were present when one of their
companions was killed years ago—will tell everything that
really happened that fateful night. But some secrets are
meant to stay buried, and when a desperate person turns to
murder, it’s up to Amory and Milo to sort through a web of
scandal and lies to uncover the truth, and the identity of a
killer.
