Murder In Arundel - Ruby Vitorino Moody

Murder in Arundel is the first book in a series of detective novels set in 1930s rural England featuring secret psychic Edith Kershaw, and her fun-loving cousin Hester. Dragged into a murder enquiry after attending a family wedding, the pair set out to solve the mystery clad in perky hats and pearls with a frequent glass of gin in hand. Using automatic drawing and seances to enlist the help of the ghosts of Arundel to lead her to clues, Edith can't help falling in love with the Detective Inspector assigned to the case...

Packed with authentic vintage detail, Murder in Arundel is well plotted with a grisly murder at its heart, yet never loses an underlying sense of humour.
