Más información sobre el libro

When a dinner party turns deadly, feisty Lady Cecilia Bates and her intuitive cat Jack spring into action in this historical mystery set in England, 1912. Danby Hall, the only home Cecilia has ever known, faces peril as an agricultural depression threatens her family's estate. To secure their future, Cecilia's parents, the Earl and Countess of Avebury, aim for her brother Patrick to marry wealthy American heiress Annabel Clarke. To facilitate this, they plan a grand house party for Annabel's arrival. However, the festivities take a dark turn when a guest dies after drinking from a glass intended for Annabel, revealing a more sinister problem than mere social awkwardness. As scandal envelops Danby, Cecilia, with the help of Annabel's maid Jane and her clever cat Jack, embarks on a quest to uncover the culprit. With poison hidden within the manor, Cecilia must determine whether the threat comes from a resident of Danby or one of the guests eager to see the Bates family fall from grace.
