An unexpected invitation sees Ellie Blaine leave Indiana for the rolling hills and moors of north Yorkshire, and the grand home of the stern Dr Richard Lindley – brother to her late, war hero fiancee.
If Ellie is unsure what she is doing in England, she soon has an even more complex mystery to solve when an apparent grisly accident is swiftly followed by murder – with both victims found clutching a single white feather.
She soon learns that Melmersby Hall, and its seemingly idyllic village, harbour deep secrets that someone wants to hide at any cost.
Ellie Blaine is a traditional, Golden Age Cozy Mystery series, packed with intrigue, diabolical villains, endearing friends, humour, emotion, a little romance and a real sense of history in the fascinating years following the Great War.
