The Riddle of the Roses (Silver and Grey #8)
Mary Lancaster
When the mysterious Sebastian Kellar asks Constance and Solomon to investigate the tragic death of brilliant young opera singer, Caterina di Ripoli, they can find nothing untoward at the scene – except the presence of red roses that had not been there the night before she died. What they find more suspicious is Kellar’s insistence that they keep looking.
As Caterina’s tangled personal life becomes clearer, Constance and Solomon are drawn deeper into the mystery. If there truly was a murder, then they have three suspects, Caterina’s husband, her lover, and Kellar himself, whose past has touched not only Caterina, but Constance’s disreputable and maddening mother, Juliet.
All Constance’s protective instincts are aroused. But each of the three men have motive and opportunity, and making a mistake could be deadly…
