Lucy Harrington has returned to Kurland St. Mary to help with her friend Sophia Giffinโs wedding. But her homecoming is made disagreeable by the presence of Major Robert Kurland, whose bungled proposal has ruffled Lucyโs composure, and a meddling widow who has designs on her father, the village rector.
Wary of the cloying Mrs. Chingford from the start, Lucy has doubts about the busybodyโs intentions with her father. But everyone else seems to think they make an ideal matchโuntil the courtship is curtailed when Mrs. Chingford is found dead at the bottom of a staircase. Itโs clear that it wasnโt an accident, and in hopes of finding the culprit, Lucy and Robert call a truce and begin scrutinizing the wedding guests.
But the widow left behind plenty of enemies, and when one of them is the next to turn up dead, Lucy and Robert discover that the truth is far more scandalous than anyone could have imaginedโฆ
