Philly Barker and the Murder at Deverell Grange

A historic Yorkshire estate that is the perfect location for murder...

The last thing antiques dealer Philomena Barker expects to find when she’s invited to a secluded sixteenth-century manor house in the Yorkshire Dales is a dead body.

Fortunately, retired Detective Inspector Robbie Dawkins has accompanied her. Less fortunate is the unexpected snowstorm that has trapped them in the house with a murderer and a cast of suspects.

Everyone, it seems, has a motive for wanting Orlando Stark dead. But with no sign of the murder weapon, their only evidence is a mysterious card with a witch’s mark.

As Philly and Robbie delve deeper into the investigation, connections to Robbie’s first unsolved case emerge. Could the disappearance of a woman forty years before somehow be linked to Orlando’s death?

Or does the story of a ＂witch＂ who was executed for the murder of Lord Deverell’s ancestor centuries ago hold clues?

The only thing Philly and Robbie know for sure is that if they don’t uncover the truth fast, the murderer may strike again...
