Home and hearth is never safe when you have this many enemies.
A friendless old miser, banker Lawrence Boyd, is found dead at home. Called to the scene, Inspector Witherspoon is lucky to have Mrs. Jeffries’s help – since the list of suspects includes just about everyone Boyd’s ever met.
Praise for the Mrs Jeffries Mysteries:
‘It’s murder most English all the way!’ The Literary Times
‘Fascinating murder mystery . . . wit and style . . . a winning series. Mrs. Jeffries is the Miss Marple of Victorian Mystery’ The Paperback Forum
