Description
Aristide Leonides' life was one of luxury and excess, but his death at the hands of a fatal barbiturate injection has left his family reeling. Suspicion falls heavily on his young widow, who stands to gain a vast inheritance from her late husband's business empire. However, Charles Hayward, the fiancé of Aristide's granddaughter, is determined to uncover the truth behind the murder. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that nothing is as it seems in this sprawling, ramshackle household. With its complex web of relationships and motives, the killer may have reckoned without the tenacity of Charles Hayward. Will justice be served, or will the murderer remain hidden? This gripping mystery is a masterclass in suspense and intrigue, with twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the very end.
