About the Book

A brilliant whodunnit mystery perfect for fans of M.C. Beaton and Richard Osman! Murder stalks the cobbles in England’s finest Georgian town… When an accident forces Felicia Grant back to her family’s auction house in Stamford, she vows it’ll only be a flying visit. But as the gavel falls on the final lot, a hidden secret is revealed—the body of her father’s business rival, murdered during the packed sale! Soon, Felicia is swept into a mystery that has everyone in the community as a potential suspect―including her. As the body count rises and with the people she loves under threat, Felicia takes matters into her own hands.

About the Author :
E. C. Bateman is a novelist and antique jewellery specialist. Having made the questionable decision to marry an auctioneer, she moved to Stamford and dreamt up the idea for this series whilst living in a converted Georgian flat overlooking St. Mary's Church in the heart of town. They've since decamped to the surrounding countryside with their baby daughter, but can still be spotted around the cobbled streets on a regular basis, usually being dragged along by their effervescent cocker spaniel, Audrey.

Review :
‘The action at an auction is truly inspired…I don't live too far from Stamford and I love the idea that its sleepy yet glorious appearance hides some nefarious goings on’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Love how punchy the start of this is…up there in terms of close knit communities, tension and surprises aplenty’⭐⭐⭐⭐
