Lady Rample Mysteries

When Lady Rample steps out, murder steps in. Ophelia, Lady Rample has money, freedom, a place in high society, and a fabulous wardrobe. What she doesn't have is excitement. That is, until she stumbles upon a murder at London's most exclusive jazz club. When the dismissive police investigator tells her to mind her own business, Ophelia decides to do exactly the opposite: turn from aristocratic lady to lady detective. Armed with her wit, her best friend, and her indomitable (and somewhat kooky) aunt, Ophelia plunges into London's glittering underworld of speakeasies and secrets. Between dodging danger, mixing the perfect highball, and trying not to fall for a devastatingly handsome jazz pianist, she uncovers a twisted plot involving blackmail, embezzlement, and a victim no one seems to mourn. But when the killer strikes again, Ophelia realizes she's in over her head. With false confessions, forged evidence, and a growing list of suspects, can this amateur sleuth crack the case before she becomes the next victim? In 1930s London, murder is a deadly business, and Lady Rample is determined to solve it in style. For fans of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, Nick & Nora, and Miss Marple. From the USA Today Best-Selling author of the Viola Roberts Cozy Mysteries comes the first book in the Lady Rample Mysteries set in jazz-era London.

A house party in Devon, England takes a turn for the murderous. Lady Rample and her eccentric Aunt Butty escape the broiling heat of a London summer for the cooler climes of the English countryside. But the idyllic holiday is not all cocktails and lawn croquet. And when a man is found dead in their host's study, she knows there's more going on than a simple break-in. With spies lurking in the bushes, her maid locked up in the local jail, and danger at every turn, Lady Rample is not one to give up or give in when there's a mystery afoot. Armed with cocktails, lipstick, and plenty of sex appeal, she's going to catch the spies, solve the murder, and set things right. Unless the killer gets to her first. From the author of Lady Rample Steps Out comes the delightful second installment of the Lady Rample Mysteries set in 1930s jazz-era London.
