<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When a party at his country estate proves deadly, can Drew Farthering and a clever debutante guest catch the killer before he claims another victim?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Downton Abbey </i>Meets Agatha Christie in This Sparkling Mystery<br/><br/>Drew Farthering loves a good mystery, although he generally expects to find it in the pages of a novel, not on the grounds of his country estate. When a weekend party at Farthering Place is ruined by murder and the police seem flummoxed, Drew decides to look into the crime himself. With the help of his best friend, Nick Dennison, an avid mystery reader, and Madeline Parker, a beautiful and whip-smart American debutante staying as a guest, the three try to solve the mystery as a lark, using the methods from their favorite novels.<br/><br/>Soon, financial irregularities at Drew's stepfather's company come to light and it's clear that all who remain at Farthering Place could be in danger. Trying hard to remain one step ahead of the killer--and trying harder to impress Madeline--Drew must decide how far to take this game.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>Introducing Drew Farthering <br/><br/></b>From The Tip of his black Homburg to the crease in his stylish cheviot trousers, he's the epitome of a stylish 1930s English gentleman. His only problem? The body he just discovered. <br/><br/>Drew Farthering loves a good mystery, although he generally expects to find it in the pages of a novel, not on the grounds of his country estate. <br/><br/>With the help of beautiful and whip-smart Madeline Parker, a guest from America, Drew proposes to use the lessons he's learned reading his mysteries to solve the crime. Before long, he realizes this is no lark, and no one at Farthering Place is who he or she appears to be--not the butler nor blackmailer, the chauffeur nor embezzler. Trying hard to remain one step ahead of the killer--and trying harder to impress Madeline--Drew must decide how far to take this dangerous game.<br/><br/><br/>"Readers will want to carve out uninterrupted time to read this mystery in one sitting.
