Murder at Mill Ponds House
When murder hits close to home, Iris must fight to clear her name.
...
Spring, 1924.
Reporter Iris Woodmore plans to move to London to avoid a shocking hometown
scandal. Longtime enemy Archie Powell has been threatening to reveal her darkest secret
and she’s desperate to flee before he does.
But when he’s found murdered after a violent argument with her, there’s no escape. Iris must stay and clear her name even though the truth could ruin her reputation.
With the police closing in, Iris has to find the real killer if she’s to keep her secret. Can she prove her innocence without revealing the identity of the one man who can provide her with an alibi?
A gripping new mystery for fans of Verity Bright, Clara McKenna, and Helena Dixon.
Murder at Mill Pond's House is the sixth in the Iris Woodmore series. Set in Hampshire in 1924, Iris finds herself identified as the main suspect in the murder of her longtime enemy, Archie Powell.
The plot and series, in general, are so well plotted that I never know what's going to happen next. The identity of the killer had me guessing all the way through, and I didn't figure it out until the end.
Iris is a very unconventional heroine with an unconventional love life. I would need a crystal ball to figure out which male character I should be rooting for, although Percy is such a dote. It would be nice to have a proper romantic thread running through the series, even if it takes Iris some time to unwind it.
Murder at Mill Pond's House is a class whodunit with a recurring cast of characters. I recommend you read the previous books to avoid any confusion and to get to know these wonderful characters better.

Author Bio

All my books are classic murder mysteries because golden age whodunnits are the stories I enjoy reading most.
I love to create memorable characters and devise intriguing plots with a focus on mystery rather than violence.
I live in Hampshire, England, and it’s the setting for many of my books. My standalone novel, Murder at Merewood Hospital, features Sister Helen Hopgood, the last nurse left in a military hospital in Hampshire at the end of the First World War.
I also have family connections to Devon, and the fourth Iris Woodmore Mystery, A Killing at Smugglers Cove, is set on the south coast of Devon in 1923. Iris is back in her native Hampshire for A Corpse in Christmas Close, set in Winchester over Christmas 1923, and Murder at Mill Ponds House, which begins on 1st May 1924.
You can read all of my books as standalone novels, even the Iris Woodmore Mysteries, as each is a separate story, although the characters develop as the series progresses.
I hope you enjoy reading or listening to my books.
