TWELVE FUNERALS. NO DEATHS. ONE CHILD WHO KEPT THE KEY.
A funeral card says Jonathan Reeve died in 1963 and was buried with a wife no register can find. Yet Jonathan lived for another twenty-six years, and a child's note claims he attended his own funeral.
When probate genealogist Anna Harland uses the card's brass key to open a cabinet in abandoned Greyhaven Chapel, she finds eleven more memorial cards for people who were alive on the dates printed. One gives no burial place at all-only a coordinate in Loughhaven harbour.
The mystery matters because Agnes Vale's will leaves Greyhaven Point to Ellen Shaw, the nine-year-old witness who received Jonathan's key after the private service. Ellen vanished in 1963 and later lived under another lawful name. Unless she can be identified without exposing the other protected lives, the chapel's future will be decided without her.
Anna, conservator Maya Singh, researcher Daniel Harland and solicitor Frances Morrow follow a trail through coercive debt books, withheld identity papers, coded travel routes, a false-backed cabinet and a copper tube hidden below the tide line. The evidence reveals why twelve people needed their old addresses to be mourned-and why the child with the key was never meant to carry their secrets.
The Funeral Card with No Grave is a clean British inheritance mystery about privacy, consent, identity, inherited duty and the difference between preserving evidence and claiming ownership of another person's story. It is Book Sixteen of The Loughhaven Inheritance Mysteries, resolves its central case completely and concludes the first full sixteen-book collection.
