After Thistlethwaite turns Marius's big night into a character assassination at his expense, he wonders why he was invited in the first place. Things go from bad to worse when Marius discovers the body of his cantankerous host in the hotel pool. But how can the duo catch a killer when every piece of evidence they uncover is contradicted by two more? Faced with a hostile police sergeant, evasive witnesses and a conspiracy to conceal the truth, Bella and Marius must call upon every resource they possess to uncover the secret of the body at the Grand Hotel. A charming, cozy page-turner. If you adore Agatha Christie, T E Kinsey and Lee Strauss you'll be hooked on this historical mystery.
