Set in 1946 England, Murder at Rutherford Hall is a gripping tale that will have you turning pages till the end to figure out ‘whodunit’! When the affable and absent minded Lord Rutherford disappears suddenly and unaccountably and his breathtakingly beautiful, young wife Celia flees Rutherford Hall, with blood on her hands, on a cold November evening, it sets off a chain of events that irrevocably changes the lives of all involved and consequently the fortunes of the entire family. Rachel Markham, Lord Rutherford’s niece and Jeremy Richards, an erstwhile Scotland Yard Detective team up to help the local police force unravel the mystery. Along the way, the charming characters simply pull you in to a setting of elaborate richness woven with bits and bobs of British humour and portraits of a bygone era where homes were large and beautiful, people dressed for dinners and life moved with a certain grace for the privileged. Against this enchanting backdrop, love and betrayal, life and death, laughter and grief, wealth and poverty come together to provide an immensely entertaining read.

About the Author Prior to her success as a bestselling author, she had an international corporate career spanning fifteen years. She began publishing her work on Amazon.com for the benefit of her friends, and swiftly went on to become a bestselling author on Amazon under the 'British Detectives' category. Released in January 2013, her first book Murder at Rutherford Hall went straight to the Top Ten, in its category, where it stayed for 12 weeks straight and then was picked up by print publishers. It hit bookstores in several countries around the globe. Despite her bestseller status, she considers herself as 'a writer in progress.' Murder at Rutherford Hall marked the beginning of a series of entertaining whodunits set in 1940's - 1950's England, which she considers a loving tribute to her all time favorite author in this genre - Agatha Christie. The second and third books in the Rachel Markham Mystery Series, 'Murder at Ravenrock' and 'The Riverton Case' are now available to readers exclusively on Amazon. The series, which was flagged off by her first bestseller - Murder at Rutherford Hall is a 5 book series of independent murder mysteries. She manages to write books whenever she gets some free time from her full-time job of being a mom to her three year old daughter and three dogs. She has written and published 3 books in this series in 2013.
