Death by Diamond: A 1920s Cozy Mystery

About Death by Diamond: A 1920s Cozy Mystery

Lady Ellen settles back into life at Ashcombe Hall and eagerly awaits the return of Captain Ernest Hamilton from Cairo. But her peace is shattered when a notorious thief is found dead on the neighbouring Worthington estate. Heading over to console Lady Jane Worthington, Ellen’s day takes an unexpected turn – a plane crashes on her land, piloted by flame-haired Alex, the Duke of Loxborough, who is once again masquerading under a pseudonym.

As charming as he is, Ellen is unnerved by his presence – she does not trust him. Ellen discovers that the dead thief had been attempting to steal a pair of rare pink diamonds, recently acquired by Lord Worthington and rumoured to be cursed. Though Ellen would prefer to leave the matter to the police, Jane’s pleas – and Alex’s insistence on staying in Ashcombe until the case is solved – draw her reluctantly into the investigation.

She wants the mystery and Alex gone before Hamilton returns!
