VL McBeath

Death of an Honourable Gent VL McBeath

Money, power and a deadly family feud. Eliza Thomson Investigates...

A body floating in the lake, an abandoned croquet mallet, and a debutante ball.




Preparations for one of the society events of the year are in full swing at Lowton Hall, the family estate of Neville, Earl of Lowton.




He inherited his wealth and title from his father, and nothing will stop him arranging a suitable marriage for his daughter.




Much to the annoyance of his younger brother, Sir Cyril.




Overhearing a conversation, Sir Cyril's rage is ignited. Is there anything he won't do to save the family reputation and take the title ... and money ... for himself?




When a murder is discovered, calling the police is forbidden, so amateur sleuth Eliza Thomson, and her friend Connie, take it upon themselves to investigate...
