While her famous employer investigates aboard the Orient Express, sleuth Phyllida is called to a dinner party where a bold murder claim and the subsequent death of a shy guest thrust her into a deadly mystery involving two murders and hidden secrets. - Random House, Inc.
Agatha Christieâs trusted housekeeper, Phyllida Bright, has become an amateur sleuth in her own right, using her little grey cells to solve crimes. When a party game leads to murder, she decides to crash the investigation in this latest sparkling mystery from Colleen Cambridge.
While her famous employer is happily back home at Mallowan Hall, wrestling with her Belgian detectiveâs dilemma on board the Orient Express, Phyllida is finding her local renown as a sleuth has put her in high demand. A distraught Vera Rollingbroke suspects her husband of infidelity and has invited Phyllida to a dinner party to observe his behavior, particularly in regard to one Genevra Blastwick.
What she does observe at the party is that Genevra craves attention, in contrast to her shy sister Ethel. Genevra introduces a game called Two Truths and a Lie, and one of her questionable statements is that she once witnessed a murder. At this bold claim, the guests react with disbelief and pepper her with questions. Genevra remains cagey, withholding details, but insists this is not her lie.
The next morning Phyllida learns poor Ethel was purposely run down by a motorcar the previous night while inexplicably walking home alone from the party. She fears Genevra may have been the target, which means someone at the party is a killerâtwice over. A chilling thought. With Genevra in potential dangerâand Inspector Cork proceeding ponderously as usualâPhyllida takes it upon herself to unmask the killer. With two murders to solve, she will need to grill Genevra and the guests as well as re-examine any past sudden deaths or disappearances. And if sheâs smart, sheâll look twice before crossing the road . . .
