A grand estate. A guest found dead. A French detective in the shadow of 1936.

The Dark Shadows of Emberlyn Hall is a gripping country house mystery set in the summer of 1936, as the world turns its eyes to the Berlin Olympics — and away from the quiet unease growing behind the doors of an English manor.

When French investigator Jacqueline Bodin accepts an invitation to Emberlyn Hall, she expects a genteel gathering in the countryside. But then a guest is found dead — and while the cause seems natural at first, a series of strange events begins to cast doubt.

As thick fog settles over the estate and tensions rise among the guests, Jacqueline must navigate long-buried secrets, old rivalries and carefully maintained façades. What begins as a summer retreat soon turns into a delicate investigation — and a race to uncover the truth before it's too late.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:

• Golden Age detective fiction

• Agatha Christie-style whodunits

• Atmospheric English manor settings

• Smart, insightful female sleuths

Elegant, layered, and full of quiet suspense — a classic mystery in the best British tradition.
