BOOK 5 IN THE BESTSELLING CANON CLEMENT MYSTERY SERIES

'Another clever, twisty read' i Paper

'You'll want to take a front row pew in Champton while this delicious series unfolds' Janice Hallett

It's spring 1990, and in Champton, the whole village is aflutter as a glamorous Hollywood movie has taken over Lord de Floures' Champton House as its set location.

As the actors and extras hired from the village don their farthingales, gowns, and crowns for a masque set in the 1600s, a murder interrupts filming on set - and it's an ingenious one...

Can Daniel solve the mystery with help from his sidekick, Detective Sergeant Neil Vanloo - even when things are so sticky between them?
