Murder at Honeychurch Hall

If the stones of the house could talk . . .

When Kat Stanford abandons a successful television career to help her mother, Iris, move into a rustic carriage house in Devon she quickly discovers that, behind the well-trimmed hedgerows, Honeychurch Hall is populated by more eccentrics than Kat ever met in all her time in London.

The Dowager Countess, Lord and Lady Honeychurch, their precocious seven-year-old heir, his missing nanny, a brooding stable manager, a housekeeper with an extensive designer shoe collection . . . Everyone seems to harbour a secret - and Kat's mother may be hiding the darkest of them all . . .
