Historia
Gloucestershire, 1925. A week-long house party in the country - why not? Lady Adelaide has nothing else to do, now that her year of mourning for her unfaithful husband is up and her plans to rekindle her romantic life have backfired. But when her hostess is found dead on the conservatory floor, Addie knows just who to call - Detective Inspector Devenand Hunter of Scotland Yard. Addie and Dev must work together to stop another murder, and they have some help thanks to Rupert, Addie's late and unlamented husband. Rupert needs to make amends for his louche life on earth.

Not what I expected or wanted
Revisado: 12-01-24
I thought this would be more like an Agatha Christie novel. A closed set, all staying in the house, solving a murder by questioning suspects and looking for clues. It was none of that. The protagonist doesn't actually do any detective work, relying only on her dead husband ghost to snoop and give her answers, which he's not even very good at, and then she gives them to the detective, who they mention several times being very clever but he also uncovered almost nothing himself and in the end *spoiler kind of* the killer just admits everything themselves. I haven't read any of her other books but the romance element they kept trying to fit in was boring and unnecessary and felt like two characters in a movie who are supposed to like each other but the actors have no chemistry. If you like true murder mystery books you'll likely find this one very simple, unimaginative and boring. Definitely not worth the money in my opinion.
