Murder Among Us

'...the two sleuths stand out as realistically portrayed, mature characters...an author of considerable promise.' - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. When historic Springwood Hall is turned into a hotel, a number of noses are put out of joint locally. The gala opening, to which, in a spirit of compromise, all the disaffected parties have been invited, promises to be quite an event - not least because the amply upholstered Hope Mapple is planning a disruptive streak protest. However, Hope is upstaged by the discovery of a recently murdered body in the wine cellar, and the occasion turns horribly serious for Chief Inspector Markby and his guest Meredith Mitchell.
