Benedict Brown . Benedict Brown . English

At a luxurious country wedding, the mother of the bride is found murdered and the groom caught red-handed, but who wielded the knife? When the Duchess of Hinwick is found dead on her daughter's wedding day, renowned sleuth Lord Edgington must prove his grandson's innocence by discovering the real killer's identity. As he unravels the mystery of the murdered aristocrat, it becomes clear that even her own family are happy to see the back of her. With the bride's ex-fiancé, a suspicious butler, and a plethora of plotting relatives among the suspects, how will the famous detective find the truth when just about everyone wanted the duplicitous woman dead? A fast, funny and fabulous 1920s whodunnit filled with countless twists and surprises. "Blood on the Banisters" is an Agatha-Christie-style mystery with a cast of brilliant characters that will have you racing to the final chapter. Even if Lord Edgington can save the groom, will they get to the church on time or die trying? Each book in the bestselling "Lord Edgington Investigates" mystery series can be read as a standalone case.

About the Author

I’m a Welsh-Irish-Englishman originally from South London but now living in Burgos, a beautiful city in the north of Spain, with my French-Spanish wife and our two young children. Writing has always been my passion. It was my favourite half-an-hour a week at primary school, and I started on my first, truly abysmal book as a teenager. So it wasn’t a difficult decision to study literature at university which led to an MA in Creative Writing. I grew up in a crime-fiction-mad family and had made a few clumsy attempts at writing one over the years before coming up with the idea for my contemporary whodunits "The Izzy Palmer Mysteries". My second series, the 1920s-set "Lord Edgington Investigates...", has been a great success, with each of the books becoming a bestseller. I have a new series called "The Marius Quin Mysteries" coming in November 2023. If you'd like to tell me what you think about my detectives, my writing or the world at large, I’d love to hear from you, so feel free to get in touch at www.benedictbrown.net where you can also download my free mystery novellas and join my readers' club.
