The Night in Question (An Agathas Mystery)

Description

How do you solve a murder? Follow the lessons of the master—Agatha Christie! Iris and Alice find themselves in the middle of another Castle Cove mystery in the sequel to New York Times bestseller The Agathas| by powerhouse authors Kathleen Glasgow and Liz Lawson.

Last October| Alice Ogilvie’s ex-best friend| Brooke Donovan| was killed—and if it weren’t for Alice’s unlikely alliance with her tutor| Iris Adams| and her library of the complete works of Agatha Christie| the wrong person would almost certainly be sitting in prison for the crime. The Castle Cove police aren’t exactly great at solving crimes. In fact| they’re notorious for not solving crimes.

Which is why| on the night of Castle Cove High’s annual Sadie Hawkins dance| Alice takes the opportunity to explore Levy Castle—the site of one of Castle Cove’s most infamous deaths. Mona Moody—­the classic film star—died there almost a century ago| and Alice is pretty sure the police got that invest­igation wrong| too. But before she can even think about digging deeper| she walks right into the scene of a new crime. Rebecca Kennedy| on the ground in a pool of blood. And standing over Kennedy? Another one of Alice’s ex-friends—Helen Park.

The Castle Cove Police Department thinks it’s an open-and-shut case| but Alice and Iris are sure it can’t be that simple. Park isn’t a murderer—and the girls know all too well that in life| and in mysteries| things are rarely what they appear to be. To understand the present| sometimes you need to look to the past.

Castle Cove is full of secrets| and Alice and Iris are about to uncover one of its biggest—and most dangerous—secrets of all.
