At Glenross House, everyone remembers the bridge hand. The trouble is, memory may be the perfect alibi.
A winter gathering in Perthshire turns deadly when Sir Duncan Glenross is found murdered in his library. Before his death, he accused a guest of cheating at cards—a charge that threatens a doctor's reputation and leaves the household divided. Then the guests recall seeing Beatrice Laird play a decisive card at the bridge table.
Clara Bennett remembers something different: the card was called by the declarer. That small distinction opens a gap in the evening's confident recollections, and someone had the chance to leave the drawing room unseen.
As snow closes in around Glenross House, Julian Ashcombe and Clara must untangle three private scandals, a disputed charity payment and a sequence everyone believes they witnessed. But a corrected memory is not proof, and each innocent secret carries its own cost.
In a house where courtesy keeps people talking—and the truth carefully covered—Clara's eye for order may separate a remembered play from a murderer's alibi.
