'Mrs MacBain, thank god it's you.' Without another word, he grabbed her arm and pulled her into the room, locking the door behind them. Mrs MacBain turned around, clearly offended at being manhandled, but then gasped, 'Is that blood?'

Loch Down Abbey is full of guests for a Highland Ball. Including several uninvited members of the Inverkillen clan, the Abbey's former residents. Housekeeper Mrs MacBain thinks her biggest challenge will be finding suitable rooms for everyone and keeping the peace at cocktail hour.

Until the morning after the ball, when one of the guests is discovered inside the Abbey's library - as dead as a doornail.

Who would have had motive to want them dead? And how did they manage to commit their crime and escape while keeping the door locked from the inside?

With an Abbey full of suspects and secrets, it is down to Mrs MacBain to catch the killer before they strike again...

I do hope that more books from this series are released on Audible! I really enjoyed the first release and its follow up is just as satisfying!!

Excellent plot and narrator!!

good story but started painfully slow... about an hour into the story I had to re-listen to the opening .... the narration itself was slow... so I sped it up... I started enjoying the book with about 2 hours to finish

lots of twists and turns

Loved this one even more than the first in the series. Characters are so vivid, plot lines are fast-paced and so well thought out, and the historical context is fascinating. I want more!!!

More more more!

This series is a great "Golden Age" Mystery, set during that time with all the classic tropes - but somehow finds a way to be fresh and engaging. Great story and plot, superb narration, and love love love the tongue-in-cheek titles. If you like the Agatha Christie style stories, you'll really love this series.

Modern take on the Golden Age
