Murder in the Museum

Murder in the Museum

by SimonBrett (Author)

Synopsis

Bracketts, an Elizabethan house near the town of Fethering, is about to be turned into a museum. Once the home of celebrated poet Esmund Chadleigh, it has now been decided that it should become a shrine to his life and poetry.

But the transition from house to museum is running far from smoothly. For a sudden discovery is made: Buried in the kitchen garden is a human skeleton. And before too long, there is a second body, not yet cold. Murder is no longer just a dreadful possibility, but a certainty.It is a case that will test the sleuthing powers of Board member Carole Seddon and her friend Jude as never before . . .
