An old country house is renovated and turned into a hotel that hosts murder mystery weekends and it's the opening weekend. Naturally, there is a real murder, in fact three. Harry Falconer, and his side kick Davy Carmichael, enter the picture to solve the case.

A nice cosy country murder. 

However, this is so poorly executed. The main characters are caricatures and so bad at their job as police that it's a wonder they solve anything. Just when I think the writing in this series seems to have improved it stumbles and gets convoluted. Why use one word when a whole paragraph will do. There just doesn't seem to be any consistency to characters and just when you think you are getting a clear picture of Harry Falconer the character takes a sharp turn to the left and jump to the right, three steps backwards and falls over. It just gets so confusing.

I don't know if I will complete this series, but I have them on the shelf.
