Murder at the Masquerade

By: Valerie Brandy

Murder, masquerades, and monarchy— what else would you expect from Rebecca Orange?

With her engagement to the Duke finally official, exotic animal trainer turned amateur sleuth Rebecca Orange thought the hardest part would be picking a dress. But in Monrovia, royal engagements mean one thing: an elaborate castle masquerade, packed with foreign dignitaries, curious villagers, and enough political tension to make even the castle’s pasta-eating giraffe nervous.

When the lights suddenly go out and an ambassador is found murdered mid-soirée, Rebecca and her ever-faithful (and perpetually hungry) Tibetan Mastiff, Joe, are once again thrust into a high-stakes investigation—one that could spiral into an international disaster.

With the help of castle-manager Maggie, her favorite reluctant ally Officer Basilier (and Basilier’s beloved stun gun), and a guest list full of masked suspects, Rebecca must navigate diplomatic secrets, wedding stress, and Monrovia’s notoriously complicated castle traditions... all while wondering if marrying into royalty comes with just a few too many murder investigations.

Because in Monrovia, happily-ever-after always comes with a twist— and sometimes, a body count.

Perfect for fans of royal gossip, clever mysteries, and slow-burn romance with a castle-sized serving of whimsy.
