Autumn 1925. Kitty Worthington and her husband, Robert, are looking forward to celebrating their first wedding anniversary in London among family and friends. But before they can uncork the champagne, Scotland Yard intervenes with an assignment that calls them both away.Their mission is to attend a ‘country-house shooting party’ at a remote estate in the Scottish Highlands. The gathering appears to be a genteel social affair, yet beneath its polished surface lies a secret meeting of statesmen and industrialists negotiating the fate of post–Great War armaments.
When an arms magnate is found dead, the hunt shifts from grouse to murderer. Deeming the situation increasingly grave, Scotland Yard dispatches additional help in the form of Kitty and Robert's close friends. As they take on the covert inquiry, they soon uncover a web of deceit where loyalties can be bought and truth itself may prove deadly.
And then the situation grows from bad to worse when a snowstorm threatens on the horizon. With no time to lose, they must unmask the murderer before they become the next target.
Murder in the Highlands, Book 15 in the Kitty Worthington Mysteries, is a 1920s historical cozy mystery, set against the wild beauty of Scotland. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie’s country house murders.
