Of Deadly Descent

Join Alex and Briggie on a trip to France and then to Oxford in this stand-alone sequel to Cankered Roots. On the trail of Alex's newfound cousins who are heirs under an old will, the pair scarcely arrive in Oxford before one of Alex's cousins is killed. Was it murder? Did it have anything to do with their search? If so, who even knew they were coming? While trying to answer these questions, they uncover among Alex's relatives a number of secrets someone would kill for. In the midst of her sleuthing, Alex attracts the attention of Charles Lamb, an impossibly handsome bachelor who is used to having women fall at his feet.
