Death at Dovecote Hatch by Dorothy Cannell

November, 1932. Still reeling from the recent murder at Mullings, country estate of the wealthy Stodmarsh family, the peaceful little village of Dovecote Hatch is about to be rocked by news of another violent death. When mild-mannered Kenneth Tenneson is found dead from a fall down the stairs at his home, the coroner's inquest announces a verdict of accidental death. Florence Norris, however - the quietly observant housekeeper at Mullings - suspects there may be more to it than that. Florence's suspicions of foul play would appear to be confirmed when a second will turns up revealing details of a dark secret in the Tenneson family's past. Determined to find out the truth about Kenneth's death, Florence gradually pieces the clues together - but will she be in time to prevent a catastrophic turn of events?

Dorothy Cannell, a mother of four, grandma of ten, and dog owner, was born in England and immigrated to the United States at the age of twenty. She and her husband relocated to Belfast, Maine, after years of residing in Peoria, Illinois. She took a writing class on a whim twenty years ago. Her debut Ellie Haskell novel, The Thin Woman, was chosen by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association as one of the 100 Favorite Mysteries of the Twentieth Century. Ellie, who Booklist characterizes as half Miss Marple, part modern British mum, has appeared in more than a dozen mysteries.
