Currently Reading...

I'm currently reading A Silent Stabbing by Alyssa Maxwell. This book is the fifth in the Lady and Lady's Maid Mystery series and will be released February 25, 2020.

Stephen Ripley is back in Little Barlow and is causing all manner of problems. Not only does he want to sell the family orchard out from his brother, he wants to sell it to an American who wants to raze the pears and build a resort for wealthy Americans! Stephen has also taken over as head gardener at Foxwood Hall, yet no one knew of the previous gardener's decision to leave. Lady Phoebe and her grandfather intend to speak to the man, but find him murdered, stabbed to death with his own hedge clippers. With suspicion immediately thrown on Stephen's brother, Lady Phoebe intends to investigate. Yet keeping her mistress out of harm's way is not Eva's only concern. Keenan may have an alibi, but Eva believes that her sister...her married sister...may be the one to provide it. Now Lady Phoebe and Eva must work together once more to see that justice is served and propriety maintained.
