When the master of Blackstone Manor is poisoned, Detective Inspector Marcus Halliwell finds himself with no shortage of suspects.
The master is dead.
The soup is suspect.
So is everyone else in the house.
When the employer at Blackstone Manor is felled by a poisoned soup, suspicion falls immediately on the French chef - Raphael Poitiers and his fondness for mushrooms make a compelling case. But he is far from alone in the frame. The victim's longtime lady's maid, the housekeeper, the butler, the footman, and the light-fingered maid all have their own reasons to keep secrets. Even the ghost that supposedly haunts the manor refuses to be ruled out.
Detective Inspector Marcus Halliwell has seen complicated cases before. This one may take the biscuit. Complicating matters is the obvious romance between the chef and the upstairs maid. Did they plot the murder together?
The Curse of Blackstone Manor is a charming historical cozy mystery with a manor full of secrets, a colorful cast of suspects, and a detective who won't rest until he knows whether the butler did it. Book 4 in the Cotton Cops Mysteries: The Rivington Years.
