Murder In The Museum
Simon Brett
First Time in Paperback
The trustees of Bracketts House are arrogant, snobbish,
egotistical, and the last group Carole Seddon ever
expected to associate with. Once the home of the famous
literary figure Esmond Chadleigh, Bracketts is in danger
of closing due to lack of funding. Half the trustees
believe that the house should be expanded into a museum,
while the other half vehemently opposes the plan. But the
debate has to be put on hold when a human skeleton is
uncovered in the garden with a hole bored in the back of
its skull. Braketts House founder Sheila Cartwright has
managed to keep this unseemly news from the press, but an
American biographer with an interest in Chaleigh has
learned the secret, and believes there is more to the
author's past than the skeleton in the garden. Now, Carole
and Jude must risk tarnishing the sterling reputation of a
beloved author to learn whether his sword was mightier
than his pen.
