“A brilliant follow-up that proves Kristen Perrin is here to stay...A thrilling story that ends with a big reveal you won't see coming, even though the clues were in front of you the entire time!”—G.T. Karber, international bestselling author of Murdle
New York Times bestselling author Kristen Perrin is back and better than ever with her second Castle Knoll Murder Mystery.
Welcome to Castle Knoll, the idyllic English village home to a surprising number of murderers.
Present day: Annie Adams is just settling into life in Castle Knoll when local fortune teller Peony Lane shares a cryptic message only hours before being found dead inside the locked Gravesdown Estate. Annie has no choice but to delve into the dark secrets of her new countryside home in order to find out just what Peony Lane was trying to warn her about, before her brand new life comes crashing down around her.
1967: Teenage Frances Adams, Annie’s great aunt, finds herself caught between two men. Ford Gravesdown is one of the only remaining members of a family known for its wealth and dubious uses of power. Archie Foyle is a local who can’t hold down a job and lives above the village pub. But when Frances teams up with Archie to investigate the car crash that killed most of Ford's family, it quickly becomes clear that this was no accident—hints of cover-ups, lies, and betrayals abound. The question is, just how far does the blackness creep through the heart of Castle Knoll? When Frances uncovers secrets kept by both Ford and Archie, she starts to wonder: What exactly has she gotten herself into?
As Annie and Frances investigate two new mysteries spanning decades, they’ll unlock the next level of secrets held in Castle Knoll’s dark heart.

"Along with strong emotional connections between characters on the page and with readers, the mystery is complex, and the clues plentiful, while the charming location and tight-knit community will encourage a cozy reread. The end is satisfying on multiple levels, including the promise of more mysteries to come. A perfect choice for readers of Agatha Christie and Alan Bradley's Flavia de Luce series."—Booklist (starred review)

SNAP A really great read.
"This was the best book. When it came up on my feed & it had said laugh out loud funny. I thought ya right? But it was, I found myself laughing out loud many times. I was sad when it ended, which I haven't felt that way about a book in a long time. I even wanted to send an email to Susin Nielsen to tell her how much I enjoyed this book & to see if there were anymore books by her. Sadly this is her first adult the rest are for teenagers. I look forward to more books by her. It really was a great read."
