The Last Mrs. Summers
by Rhys Bowen
Newlyweds Georgiana and Darcy have just returned home from their honeymoon when Darcy leaves on a top-secret work assignment. Belinda, Georgiana’s best friend, has just inherited a cottage in Cornwell so they decide to make the trip to inspect the property. While in Cornwell the women run into Rose, a childhood playmate of Belinda’s, who invites the women to stay at her estate. Tragically Tony, Rose’s husband, is murdered and Belinda is found holding the knife. Belinda is arrested and charged with the murder. Georgiana must help untangle the mystery even when local officials encourage her not to.
Even though fun characters Queenie, Georgiana’s maid, and Granddad are missing from the story, the fourteenth entry in the Royal Spyness Mystery series is a delight for fans of Rhys Bowen.
