A quaint English fete. A village full of secrets. A shocking murder.
In 1920s England, private detective Henry Fleming is visiting his friend, retired author Lily Riley, in the quintessentially English village of Fulbridge.
Tragedy strikes when a resident is murdered, stabbed through the heart, in the historic local church.

The Mystery of Watermead Manor
A marriage celebration. A shocking murder. An English manor house mystery. Private detective Henry Fleming is invited to spend the weekend at Watermead Manor to celebrate the marriage of Gerald and Ida Langley. The handsome millionaire had been instantly smitten with the glamorous Ida and, after a whirlwind romance, they had married in secret. Upon returning to England, however, it soon becomes apparent that not everyone is pleased or excited about the marriage and very soon accusations begin to fly about Ida’s Does she really love him, or is she just an opportunistic gold-digger? When, during the celebratory dinner, a guest is struck down by what appears to be poison, every guest becomes a suspect. It’s now up to Fleming to sift through the evidence and thereby unearth the truth and expose the lies.
*** Death on Damson Island
An isolated island. A savage storm. An English murder mystery.
A storm is raging over Damson Island, a desolate yet beautiful rocky outcrop off the south coast of England.
The island’s magnificent main house belongs to theatre director Randall Dobson, a man desperate to have his play ready for its West End stage debut. With time running out, he asks leading cast members to attend final rehearsals there, and Henry Fleming is invited by his old friend, the veteran actress Lady Mabel Garfield, to join them.
Cut off from the mainland by the storm, tensions rise, accusations fly and secrets are whispered. But despite old rivalries resurfacing and jealousy rearing its ugly head, it still comes as a shock when one of their number is brutally murdered.
Who among the guests is capable of such an act? With no way of reaching the mainland, private detective Henry Fleming must sift fact from fiction and uncover the truth if he is to answer the who among them has a motive for murder?
***
For fans of Poirot, Miss Marple, Columbo, Jessica Fletcher and all their wonderful whodunnit / howdunnit mysteries.
Clean no graphic violence, bedroom shenanigans, or strong language.
