Dancing at the Savoy: A Samantha Duncan Mystery (Samantha Duncan Mysteries Book 9)

This, Thurbin's 9th book in the series, weaves an interesting story around the iconic Savoy Hotel in London. Once more, the Oxford don turned amateur sleuth unravels a subtle mystery between travels to a conference at the College of William and Mary in Virginia and galloping over the moors in the Devon countryside. An unexpected Christmas visitor, an elegant New Year's Eve venue and a visit to the famous Christie's Auction House provide the reader with another intellectual journey through the world of art and the intricasies of human nature. A cast of well-drawn characters and a conundrum that gently reveals itself to the reader are Thurbin's trademark in another well researched and impeccably crafted mystery.
