A Gilded Grave (NEWPORT GILDED AGE Book 1)

First in a new series from the author of the Celebration Bay mysteries
Â
In 1895, the height of the Gilded Age, the social elite spend their summers in Newport, Rhode Island. Within the walls of their fabulous â€œcottages,â€ competition for superiority is ruthless â€¦ and so are the players.
Â
During her first Newport season, Deanna Randolph attends a ball given in honor of Lord David Manchester, a Barbadian sugar magnate, and his sister, Madeline. The Manchesters are an immediate successâ€”along with their exotic manservant and his fortune-telling talents.
Â
But on the nearby cliffs, a young maid lies deadâ€”and suspicion falls on Joseph Ballard, a member of one of the townâ€™s most prestigious families.
Â
Joe humiliated Deanna when he rebuffed an engagement to her, but while he may be a cad, she knows he isnâ€™t a killer. Now the reluctant allies must navigate a world of parties, tennis matches, and sÃ©ances to find the real murderer. But a misstep among the glittering upper classes could leave them exposed to something far more dangerous than malicious gossipâ€¦
