Dying for a Garden Party by Vl Mcbeath

Two families, one man and murder. Eliza Thomson Investigates.

A dead body in the study, a lifetime of memories, and an old oak tree.


A garden party at Oak House, the home of Mr and Mrs Hartley, is the perfect way to bring the villagers of Moreton-on-Thames together.


Retired banker and self-made man, Mr Hartley dominates everyone around him. He's ruthless in business and frightened of no one, but since the accident he's spent his time as a recluse.


When his wife arranges a birthday party for him, it's the perfect cover for murder.


In a world where secrets and lies are the norm, amateur sleuth Eliza Thomson and her friend Connie are more than willing to help the police with their enquiries.


This is the fourth standalone story in the Eliza Thomson Investigates series. If you like Miss Marple-style murder mysteries, and women sleuths with attitude, you'll love this historical British series.

McBeath, VL: - Born and raised in Liverpool (UK), VL McBeath (Val) initially trained as a scientist and worked in the pharmaceutical industry for many years. It was only more recently she developed a passion for writing. Her first series, The Ambition & Destiny Series, arose out of Val's interest in her family's history. After many years it was developed into an epic family saga based on the lives of her Victorian-era ancestors. From start to finish, the short story prequel and the five full-length novels took over seven years to write and publish. By the time they were finished, writing was such a big part of Val's life she decided to carry on and added a standalone novel to the series. In addition, Val also has a second series available: Eliza Thomson Investigates. This is a series of standalone murder mysteries set in the early 20th century. Eliza is a fictional amateur sleuth who makes the most of her position being married to the village doctor. Along with her her best friend Connie and occasionally her son, Henry, Eliza likes to help the police with their murder enquiries - whether they want her to or not! Val lives in Cheshire with her husband and cat, Lia. In addition to family history, her interests include rock music and Premier League Football.
