The third installment in the award-winning, NYT Bestselling, book club worthy Castle Knoll Murder Mystery series, in which Annie Adams and her Great Aunt Frances head to London, and team up across decades to solve two interlocking murders, uncovering another layer of secrets festering in the idyllic English Village of Castle Knoll.
Annie Adams thought she'd solved her last Castle Knoll murder. She was wrong. 1968: Frances Adams is loving her new London life. She's a psychology student, a diner waitress, and falling for Ford Gravesdown, who understands her like no one else. But one of her new friends, Vera is scared for her life. She's found out something she shouldn't know about someone with a lot of power, and before Frances can help her, Vera is found dead, her heart ripped right out of her chest.
Present day: Annie Adams needs some time away from Castle Knoll, the quaint English village that's home to a surprising number of murderers. She'll spend the summer in the Chelsea House, the London townhome that once belonged to her Great Aunt Frances, for a change of scenery. But when her artist mother's new protegee is found dead, murdered in exactly the same, gruesome way as Vera all those years ago, Annie realizes Castle Knoll isn't done with her yet. Fate, it seems, is not so easily escaped.
With more secrets to protect, this killer won't be stopping at just one victim. Annie's heart is on the line. Will she be able to put the pieces together before it's too late?
