A spooky tower, a sour historian, and one messy murder.
The calm at Audley Castle shatters when Bluebell Brewster, a brilliant but sharp-tongued restorer, is found dead inside the castle's supposedly haunted turret. The evidence says murder. The castle whispers say ghost. Holly says something's definitely off.
Bluebell clashed with almost everyone on the restoration team, but suspicion falls squarely on mild-mannered Herbert, a man so gentle Holly can't picture him harming a cupcake, let alone a colleague.
Determined to uncover the truth, Holly teams up with Campbell, the castle's head of security. Between questioning jumpy restorers, limping on an injured ankle, and wondering why Princess Alice is ignoring her, Holly has her hands full. And the deeper she digs, the more she uncovers a mess of jealousy, buried secrets, grudges, and motives stickier than a lemon drizzle glaze.
With Meatball the corgi by her side and danger rising, Holly has to solve the case before the killer strikes again. And this time, the surprise waiting for her is more shocking than the murder.
