    “Book Descriptions: In this three-book box set:

    AN INVITATION TO MURDER
    Frank Renfield, Baron of Renfield Hall, will stop at nothing to save himself from ruin. Even if that means marrying his daughter off to a rich American. Unfortunately for him, she is already in love with a penniless nobody named Alan Lavender — to the glee of Alan’s greedy uncle Guy. Guy has been nosing into the Renfields’ murky past, and he says he’s uncovered a secret. Tensions run high, until Guy Lavender turns up dead. A convenient coincidence for Frank . . . ?

    AN ANTIQUE MURDER
    The Irving retirement home for actors in their twilight years is never short of drama. Not least when legendary thespian Sir Frank Taylor is discovered dead in his bloodstained bed. A Nazi dagger plunged deep in his chest. Detectives French and Edwards are called to the home to investigate. And soon find out the star of the stage was hiding a shocking secret he never wanted his public to know. The residents at the Irving are now living in perpetual fear. Who will be next?

    THE SECRET OF BAGNETT HALL
    Janet Baxter is a con woman on the run. One dark and stormy night, she stumbles across rambling old Bagnett Hall. She’s struck gold. Bridget Messite, the lady of the house, invites her in. She offers Janet a job and a place to stay. The arrangement suits Janet just fine. Until Bridget drops dead. The mistress of Bagnett Hall was a timid recluse with no family or friends to mourn her. Everything that was hers could now belong to Janet. But little does Janet realize, she’s not the only one hiding a secret. And this one might just be worth killing for . . .

    THE SETTING
    Oldminster is a city with a past and an ancient cathedral at its heart. Visit the twisty maze-like streets of the old quarter, and prepare to fall in love. But cross over the river — to the seamy side of town — and you’ll discover a secret side to this picture-perfect little place. Oldminster might seem like a place for summer rain and golden sunsets, but like Miss Marple’s village, it’s cram-full of wickedness.

    THE DETECTIVES
    DS Glyn Edwards
    Thirty-something DS Edwards lives with his wife Sandra, but his home life is anything but blissful. Is his career about to cost him his marriage? Or can he find a way to reconcile the two? Either way, Glyn is a very hands-on detective who never gives up on a case. He works hand-in-glove with his superior officer . . .

    DI French
    Redoubtable Detective French has always been a stickler for order, detail and procedure — until the arrival of his baby daughter late in his marriage to Moira turned his orderly world upside down. Still, he doesn’t suffer fools gladly, and is more than a match for certain prickly, well-to-do residents of Oldminster.”
