A drowned stranger. A houseful of suspects. And the one guest no one will ever think to watch.
At Wexcombe Hall, the autumn party has barely begun when a man is pulled from the ornamental lake. The coroner is brisk: too much wine, a misjudged step in the dark. An accident. The household is relieved; the betrothal will proceed; the party will go on.
But Lady Cordelia Vane - poor, plain, invited only to fill an empty chair - can see the drowned man still standing at the water's edge, dripping and bewildered. The dead do not linger at the lake that took them by accident.
There is only one trouble. He cannot tell her his own name.
To give a murdered stranger back his name and deliver his killer, Cordelia must work a closed circle of guests without ever being seen to look - while someone who drowned a man and smiled through breakfast begins to wonder why the quiet one keeps walking down to the lake.
Someone in this house is a murderer. And they are starting to wonder about her.
The Lady Sees a Drowning is a clean, witty Regency paranormal cozy mystery - a closed-circle country-house puzzle with a sweet slow-burn romance and a faithless pug. Book Three of The Lady Sees... Mysteries. Each death is a complete case.
