"In this delightful new mystery, our heroine Kat Stanford stumbles upon a hidden room in an abandoned wing at Honeychurch Hall. However, Kat's initial excitement soon ends in horror. There, lying on the cold, stone floor, Kat comes across the body of a young woman dressed in an Egyptian toga and wearing a tawdry fairground trinket around her broken neck. Suspicion falls on some of those who live at the Hall-- both upstairs and down-- and even those who are just been passing through. Matters come to a head as a killer lurks amid the aristocracy, and Downton Abbey fans will want more Killer Balls at Honeychurch Hall"--

This book was much quirkier than I expected. The characters are unique and end up in all kinds of hijinks. The setting of a run down English manor is great. It is a realistic look at running an estate like that. Kat is the normal one in a whole host of wacky characters. The older body causes people to dig into the past and find out long buried secrets. I love reading about those. The current day murder brings about some secrets as well. The clues were there, but not super obvious. So it left me wondering who the ‘bad guy' was for most of the book.
Good read.
