Poison at Pemberton Hall

A dazzling diva, a glittering society dinner, and a killer with a terrible grudge...

In Edwardian England, bookish and bespectacled Vita Carew longs to be left to her scientific studies. But she can't avoid the event of the season, a gala at Pemberton Hall. This glamorous concert and sumptuous dinner will mark the Pemberton household's triumphant return to society after a run of misfortune.

But disaster strikes as soon as the seafood is served. Elegant guests fall ill on all sides and, whilst administering first aid as best she can, amateur sleuth Vita suspects foul play. When the Pemberton's governess is found dead the next day, Vita's suspicions double-could Miss Hartley's death have been covered up to avoid interrupting the carefully planned soirée?

Vita must probe dark secrets behind Pemberton Hall's elegant veneer to discover who is to blame. But can she do so before the killer strikes again?
