Description

When Enid's beloved cousin died while riding, she didn't believe the simple tragic words of an accident.

Seeking the truth, she disguises herself as a lady's companion to enter the household at Derlaston Manor.

Rumors do not just tell of trouble after the wedding of her cousin to the eighth Baron of Derlaston. Enid also learns of the baron's need for money, of his late father's unlucky death while riding, and of a mysterious mistress at the estate when her cousin died.

A black-haired vagabond lurks in a nearby woodland.

And a ghost haunts the manor, a ghost who looks very like Enid's cousin.

Did the baron commit murder? Or one of his family? Or that mysterious vagabond?

The ghost knows … but the ghost isn't telling.

Multi-published writer M.A. Lee's love of historical mysteries began before her teen-aged years.

· Regency novels motivated her own twelve-book mystery series Hearts in Hazard.

· Authors like Mary Stewart inspired her Into Death series, set in the 1920s.

· The vintage gothic mysteries of Victoria Holt and Dorothy Eden have inspired the Miss Beale Writes series, of which The Bride in Ghostly White is the second. The first novella in the series is The Dark Lord.

Both novellas will be in the duology Perils in Lace and Hard Iron.
