The Mystery of the Wedding Guest
(2026)(The eighth book in the Lady Mildred Ramsay Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Ruth Baker
She came for the wedding. She stayed for the murder.
August, 1925.
Lady Mildred Ramsay expects nothing more strenuous than a good hat, a better toast, and the pleasure of watching someone else's family survive a wedding for once.
Then Selina Marsh is found dead in the garden.
She knew the wedding party's secrets. She had made a profitable business out of keeping them. And when her body is discovered, a torn page is still crushed in her fist.
Now a ledger has vanished, old scandals are threatening to surface, and Mildred discovers that almost everyone at the wedding had something to fear from the dead woman.
Someone had even more to lose.
Because one guest isn't merely hiding a secret.
They're willing to kill to keep it.
And while Mildred hunts a murderer, Inspector Charles Kent has arrived in London with a very particular question of his own.
Mildred promised to be at home when he came calling.
She didn't promise to stay out of trouble while she waited.
A witty and twist-filled 1920s historical cosy mystery, perfect for readers who love clever clues, suspicious characters and murders served with a dash of humour.
