ROTTEN TO THE CORE Lady Hardcastle, Book 8

Elizabeth Knowelden's versatile British accents enhance this charming cozy set in the sultry summer of 1911 in the quaint English town of Littleton Cotterell. When the Apple Cider Warden of the ancient Weryers society is stabbed to death, Police Inspector Oliver Sunderland of Gloucestershire enlists the assistance of the aristocratic-sounding amateur sleuth Lady Edith Hardcastle and her well-bred sidekick/lady's maid, Flo Armstrong, to investigate the murder. When another murder occurs, the clues become juicier and the stakes higher as the duo learns more about the ancient cult and decades-old possible causes for murder. Lady Hardcastle's eighth adventure is filled with personalities who help and hinder the detectives--both professional and amateur. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2022]
