Service for Two

The Pennyfoot Hotel has survived scandal, secret rendezvous, and more than one suspicious death. Its discreet downstairs staff knows when to look the other way, but when murder threatens the hotel’s reputation, owner Cecily Sinclair must uncover the truth before Scotland Yard closes her notorious seaside establishment for good.

The village of Badger’s End has gathered to mourn its beloved doctor. But when the coffin is opened, the grieving congregation is met with a horrifying discovery: the body inside belongs to a murdered stranger.

Who is the dead man? How did he end up in the doctor’s coffin? And, most troubling of all, what has happened to the doctor’s body?

When Cecily learns that the unidentified victim had ties to the Pennyfoot Hotel, the mystery lands squarely on her doorstep. With a killer covering their tracks and two bodies unaccounted for, she must follow a trail of buried grudges and carefully guarded secrets before another funeral is required.

A twist-filled English village mystery featuring a resourceful amateur detective, a missing corpse, country-house intrigue, and the charm of a classic Golden Age whodunit.
