I received an advance review copy for free thanks to NetGalley and Joffe Books and I am leaving this review voluntarily
Has a village feud led to murder? Or is the killer closer to home?
Rupert Iverson is found dead in the swimming pool of his North Norfolk manor house, dressed as Louis XIV.
He was hit over the head with a blunt object and held under the water.
More than one of the twenty-four guests has motive — as do several of the local villagers, who have been feud¬ing with Rupert's father.
This book starts out full of promise with a murder at a party. The story seems to drift off at a tangent in the middle into an unrelated investigation. When it is finally brought back on track it is difficult to see why the story just stay on the same plot.
This is my introduction to this series, even though this is book four, so the issues I faced could be down to my lack of familiarity with the author and characters.
Overall it is an easy plot, relatively easy to follow and comes to a satisfying ending.
