Murder by Invitation Only

London, December 1891. The annual Charity Masquerade at the Grand Hotel is the season's most anticipated social event, hosted by the formidable Lady Penelope Thorne. But when a guest is found dead beneath the chandelier, the elegant revelry turns to panic. With the killer still masked and the hostess quick to blame the catering staff for a 'tragic accident,' Eleanor Marchioness of Merritt finds herself in the thick of it. As the only one who noticed the killer's slip of a glove, Eleanor must navigate a ballroom full of suspects, including a jealous countess, a disgraced financier, and a solicitor with a grudge, before Lady Penelope's reputation—and her own—crumbles. Can Eleanor solve the murder before the police arrive and the truth is buried under layers of scandal?
