by Beatrice Marlowe

London, December 1891. The annual Charity Masquerade at the Grand Hotel is the season's most anticipated social event, hosted by the formidable Lady Penelope Thorne. But when a guest is found dead beneath the chandelier, the elegant revelry turns to panic. With the killer still masked and the hostess quick to blame the catering staff for a 'tragic accident,' Eleanor Marchioness of Merritt finds herself in the thick of it. As the only one who noticed the killer's slip of a glove, Eleanor must navigate a ballroom full of suspects, including a jealous countess, a disgraced financier, and a solicitor with a grudge, before Lady Penelope's reputation—and her own—crumbles. Can Eleanor solve the murder before the police arrive and the truth is buried under layers of scandal?
