About

A stuffy dinner party at an English mansion is not Jude's cup of tea. But when the nearly mummified torso of a woman shows up in the cellar, Jude and her reluctant neighbor, Carole, soon find themselves embroiled in a puzzling whodunit.

Reviews

"Like a little malice in your mysteries? Some cynicism in your cozies? Simon Brett is happy to oblige…Another witty entry in a blithely comic series."
New York Times
"Brett uses their noisiness as a vehicle for a merry skewering of middle-class pretentiousness, while presenting a dandy whodunit."
Publishers Weekly
"Pungent wit flows razor-sharp out of Howard; each word is uttered with an exactitude that perfectly mirrors the droll social commentary that sets Brett's book apart from the rest of its genre. Line after line, Howard evokes characters and milieu."
