- Synopsis
- “A clever Regency sleuth” investigates a supposedly haunted abbey—and a decidedly suspicious death—in this “excellent mystery” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).England, 1806. With a downturn in family finances, Miss Dido Kent is compelled to reside at her brother’s country vicarage. But the rural environs offer plenty of stimulation, especially when her friend Penelope suffers a fall at a historic abbey. Before she slips into unconsciousness, Penelope proclaims, ‘I saw her—It was her.’ Soon people are certain that she saw the Grey Nun, a ghost reputed to walk the abbey’s ruins.Dido, however, does not approve of ghosts. Disregarding the chatter, she resolves to investigate the mystery. But the case turns sinister when a human skeleton is found in the abbey lake. Could the discovery be connected to Penelope’s accident? Everyone is relying on Dido to find out.
