Murder in the Mist (Martha s Vineyard Mystery) - Tapa dura

Peter Marsh and his daughter Georgia try to investigate the history of a mysterious cottage they come across in Kent, a place used by the Fernbourne Five, a group of artists during the 1930s, but encounter nothing but hostility during their search.
