A glamorous 1920s murder mystery set amid high-society fashion shows and drawing-room scandal, led by an aristocratic amateur sleuth and her unconventional team. Golden-age crime fiction with witty banter, a secretive society and classic whodunnit plotting.

Murder never goes out of fashion, especially in 1920s high society.

Norwich, 1922. When a glamorous model is shot mid-stride at a high-society fashion show, Eleanor, Dowager Duchess of Drakeford, wastes no time assembling her unconventional team: her unflappable assistant Rex Sutherland and Inspector Whipple of Scotland Yard. But before they can make sense of the crime, another young woman is found dead, this time in a far more brutal manner.

As whispers of scandal ripple through the drawing rooms of the elite, all signs point to the elusive Three Circles Society, a secretive group with powerful members and dangerous motives. With reputations at stake and the body count rising, the trio must navigate a world of silk, shadows, and scandal to expose the truth hiding beneath the glamour.

A Dapper Murder is book one in the Rex and the Dowager, a thriller for fans of Agatha Christie and T.E. Kinsey.
