The Socialite's Guide To Murder

More about the book

The hotel serves as a refuge for Evelyn Elizabeth Grace Murphy, who has been agoraphobic and confined to the Pinnacle Hotel for fourteen months. It’s 1958, and the hotel is her father’s, providing everything she needs. Evelyn has a talent for finding things, having discovered her mother’s body in a Manhattan alley fifteen years ago. However, trouble brews within her sanctuary when, at a party for artist Billie Bell, his latest work is stolen, and her fake boyfriend and best friend, movie star Henry Fox, is accused. As Evelyn sets out to clear Henry’s name, she stumbles upon Billie Bell’s dead body. The murder weapon points to the hotel’s chief of security, raising questions about his motives. To uncover the truth, Evelyn teams up with hotel employee and secret crush Mac Cooper. Their investigation leads them to discover hidden secrets within the hotel walls. When they pursue a lead, their car is sabotaged, leaving them narrowly escaping with their lives. With her brake lines cut, the danger escalates. Evelyn’s sleuthing skills and imagination come into play as she organizes an elaborate party where every guest is a suspect. But will she uncover the killer among the glamorous attendees, or will she become the next victim?
