Sinopsis

A formal dinner in palatial, Gilded Age Newport stuns Val DeVere when her closest friend whispers a terrifying rumor. The friend’s ultra-rich auntie’s fatal heart attack at Mrs. Astor’s annual ball last winter was murder.

When the aunt’s reclusive daughter—and heir—succumbs to “heart failure,” Val and husband Roddy probe the deaths to shield their dear friend who is next in line to inherit the family fortune—and sudden death.

Society’s “odd couple,” Val and Roddy, a.k.a. Valentine and Roderick DeVere, blend his Old New York savvy and her mountain West vision to ask: Is Newport truly Society’s “place to take root in,” or a dear friend’s place to die?

Acerca del autor

A fresh start for every new book, and author Tichi's zest for America's Gilded Age and its boldface names draws this seasoned writer to a crime fiction series while uncorking the country's cocktail cultures on the printed (and ebook) page. Tichi digs deep into the Vanderbilt University research library to mine the late 1800-1900s history and customs of Society's "Four Hundred," its drinks, and the ways high-stakes crimes in its midst make for a gripping "Gilded" mystery series that rings true to the tumultuous era. The decades of America's industrial titans and "Queens" of Society have loomed large in Tichi's books for several years, and the titles track her recent projects:•Civic Passions: Seven Who Launched Progressive America (and What They Teach Us)•Jack London: A Writer's Fight for a Better America•What Would Mrs. Astor Do? A Complete Guide to the Manners and Mores of the Gilded Age•Gilded Age Cocktails: History, Lore, and Recipes from the Golden Age•Jazz Age Cocktails: History, Lore, and Recipes from the Roaring Twenties.•A Gilded Death (crime fiction)•Murder, Murder, Murder in Gilded Central Park (crime fiction)•A Fatal Gilded High Note (crime fiction)Cecelia is at work on the 5th in the series, A GILDED DROWNING POOL. She enjoys membership and posting in Facebook's The Gilded Age Society.
