Country houses, idyllic English villages, and ancient artefacts come together in a brilliantly entertaining murder mystery.

Dorothy and Alan are invited to be godparents of the newest member of the aristocratic Montcalm family.

But when they get to rural Suffolk for the event, they find the ceremonial dagger used in family christenings for generations has disappeared.

Sir Edwin Montcalm and his stunning Canadian wife Judith ask Dorothy and Alan to help hunt for the ancient heirloom. But it’s nowhere to be found in Dunham Manor.

Then a woman is murdered in the village. Stabbed in the back with the ornate dagger.

And Sir Edwin is the prime suspect . . .

Perfect for fans of Stella Cameron, Faith Martin, Agatha Christie, Frances Evesham, Betty Rowlands, or M.C. Beaton.
