Overview

A delightful snowbound mystery full of charm, chatter, and cheerful chaos A record-breaking snowstorm has turned Strathfulton Castle into a sparkling winter wonderland... the sort best admired from indoors with a roaring fire and a pot of tea. Unfortunately for Countess Maeve Morgan, peaceful mornings are in short supply. When a young girl's scream shatters the snowy silence, Maeve climbs into the estate's old treehouse-only to discover an unexpected guest who has, quite inconveniently, arrived in far worse condition than one hopes to find visitors. With no telephone, no police, and no escape from the storm, Maeve and her motley household are trapped with a murderer who cannot flee... and may not intend to. As the castle's residents spiral into panic-reporting mysterious figures, vanishing servants, phantom knights, and clues that make no earthly sense-Maeve is thrust into the most confounding and treacherous investigation of her life. Strange footprints appear where no one should be walking. Blood stains the snow in eerie patterns. And an ancient family legend whispers that disaster follows when the Strathfulton Sword disappears... which, disastrously, it has. The deeper Maeve digs, the more she realizes the danger isn't confined to the castle walls. Friends go missing. Loyal staff turn fearful. And someone in the shadows seems determined to ensure Maeve won't live long enough to uncover the truth. Cut off from help, surrounded by suspects, and stalked by a cunning killer who knows the castle's secrets better than she does, Maeve must piece together a tangled web of lies, rivalry, and revenge before the thaw comes. Because when the snows melt, the killer may vanish, and if Maeve isn't careful, so will she. Charming, clever, and brimming with the delightful eccentricities of Strathfulton Castle, Death in a Treehouse invites readers back into Maeve Morgan's world-where danger lurks, tea is mandatory, and even in the chilliest winter, wit is the warmest weapon of all.
