Murder at Mullings by Dorothy Cannell
An intriguing 1930s country house murder mystery: first in the brand-new Florence Norris seriesIn its 300-year history, there has never once been a scandal at Mullings, ancestral home of the decent but dull Stodmarsh family. Until, that is, Edward Stodmarsh makes an ill-advised second marriage to the scheming Regina Stapleton, who insists on bringing her family's 'ornamental hermit' to live on the estate. Suddenly everyone wants to visit Mullings to glimpse this mysterious figure. Strange but harmless, thinks Florence Norris, the family's longstanding housekeeper. But events take a sinister turn with the arrival of sudden, violent death - and suddenly the hermit doesn't seem so harmless after all.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.
