It would not be too difficult to imagine someone stood there and watched. I thought of Madeleine Hexham.... I glanced around me. It was likely that I'd been given my predecessor's room and that it was here she had planned her flight into the arms of her mysterious lover.”

When Lizzie Martin arrives in London in 1864 to become a lady’s companion, her first impressions are disturbing. She’s barely out of the station when her cab encounters a wagon carrying the remains of a young woman recently dead.

At her new home, Lizzie learns that her predecessor, Madeleine Hexham, disappeared without a word of warning. Despite rumors of immoral behavior surrounding the girl’s departure, Lizzie is soon persuaded that there’s a deeper mystery here. Her suspicions are tragically confirmed when Inspector Benjamin Ross delivers shocking tidings.

Lizzie is determined to unravel the truth about the lost Miss Hexham. As, too, is Ben Ross: a man who cares about justice, whatever the class of victim. But they must tread carefully, as a cornered killer is the most dangerous of all...</div></div>]]> 9474 3.59 631 88 2717149 0312363524 9780312363529 12 <![CDATA[A Mortal Curiosity]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2717149.A_Mortal_Curiosity 3.37 38
In Hampshire, complications mount. Late at night, Lizzie hears furtive voices outside, there’s a gentleman farmer whose demeanor with Lucy seems unusually familiar, and, while Lucy proves a bit moody, she hardly seems deranged. The girl’s aunts are clearly withholding something. . . . These tensions come to a head when a man is found dead in the garden, stabbed with a knife from the aunts’ home.

Lizzie calls upon her beau, Inspector Benjamin Ross. Together, they find themselves entangled in a mystery as bewildering as any they’ve faced.]]> 9474 3.59 631 88 1504627 0380719975 9780380719976 3 <![CDATA[A Season for Murder]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1184382901m/1504627.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1504627.A_Season_for_Murder 3.58 26 9474 3.59 631 88 1504630 0380728877 9780380728879 2 <![CDATA[Flowers for His Funeral: A Meredith and Markby Mystery]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1184382905m/1504630.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1504630.Flowers_for_His_Funeral_A_Meredith_and_Markby_Mystery 3.35 23 NYT. ]]> 9474 3.59 631 88 493984 0380724766 9780380724765 5 <![CDATA[Murder Among Us]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175213060m/493984.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/493984.Murder_Among_Us 3.50 28 But the locals' protests are quickly upstaged by the discovery of a murdered body in the wine cellar.

Markby is reluctant to become involved, not least because Toby is hardly his favorite person. Besides, he and Meredith are planning their wedding, and distractions aren't welcome. But inquiries into a poisoned pen campaign soon turn into a murder investigation.

With the help of Inspector Jessica Campbell, a new member of Markby's team, and the non-professional but enthusiastic assistance of Meredith and Toby, the inquiry unravels a twenty-five-year-old mystery and its dreadful legacy of violence.

As it happened, it was murder that changed their plans...

Call the Dead Again

Meredith is hesitant about picking up the hitchhiker on a deserted road outside Bamford, yet with darkness approaching, she just can't leave the young girl alone. But when the stranger is evasive about why she's headed for the beautiful Tudor home of a prominent lawyer, Meredith begins to feel uneasy. And when the lawyer is found dead the next morning, Meredith fears her first instincts were right.

Soon the intrepid sleuths team up to uncover the ghosts of the past and mysteries of the present--exposing some scandalous secrets that drove someone to mischief, madness...and murder.

But the dowagers interment unearths something shocking in the Gresham family plot: the remains of a pregnant teenager who disappeared twelve years earlier. . .a runaway whom nobody dreamed was dead.

The discovery has put Superintendent Alan Markbys planned vacation with his friend Meredith Mitchell on hold--as they follow a very cold trail that could lead all the way to the British Parliament. For the years have not diminished the heinousness of this crime. And they cannot rest until they know who left a black candle burning on the All Saints parish altar more than a decade ago. . .and who consigned an unfortunate young woman to the eternal darkness of anothers grave.

Dan claims he was trapped in an unhappy marriage, and in love with Ursula, but swears he's not guilty of murder. But when a second body is found on the site and attempts are made on Ursula's life, it takes the sleuthing skills of the Meredith and Markby team to sift through a mountain of conflicting clues, suspects, and possible witnesses to identify the killer and solve a twenty-five-year-old mystery as well.

Determinedly off duty, Markby grumbles that the woman's death was probably caused by a loose slipper sole. Still, Meredith's interest is piqued by suggestive acts of vandalism that have been striking the village, including the malicious poisoning of the victim's much-loved pony. And, when another body is found, even Markby must admit that there is foul play afoot. with the villagers becoming increasingly unfriendly, and the mysterious violence continuing, Meredith and Markby begin to fear that Olivia's death may have been just the first of many, unless the two of them can make sense of the scandalous secrets so carefully hidden by the inhabitants of the seemingly peaceful Cotswold village.
