A Classic Victorian Cozy Mystery

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

“Every Manor Keeps Its Secrets—Some Too Perilous to Remain Silent, and One Woman’s Courage Stands Against a Century of Deceit.”

It was on an autumn afternoon, golden yet heavy with the foreboding hush of evening, that Rosalind Harrington stepped from her carriage and crossed the threshold of Montrose Manor, a place she had once called home. She has been summoned home to fulfill the dying requests of Lady Beatrice Montrose.

In the serene yet shadowed corridors of Montrose Manor, an estate of grand but fading splendor, widowed Rosalind Harrington, a woman of wit and quiet strength, finds herself entangled in a mystery that threatens to unravel the very fabric of the Montrose family's past.

A cryptic letter, a missing woman, and whispers of a scandal long buried in silence stir the still air of her ancestral home.

As Rosalind treads the treacherous waters of propriety and deception, she must determine whom she can trust. She must walk delicately between duty and betrayal, discerning with care the faces of those who would aid her and those who would undo her.

Rosalind, with the aid of the charismatic Inspector Dexter Cross and Mrs. Lumsden, the devoted companion and caretaker of Lady Beatrice Montrose, must unravel a truth that challenges societal norms and exposes the dark underbelly of the aristocracy. Together, they traverse a world filled with hidden passages, coded letters, and delicate yet dangerous meetings with Lord Harold Montrose.
