Poison in the Pen

Lovers meet, kiss--and someone is going to tell. A poison pen is busy scribbling billets-doux in rustic Tilling Green ... until murder becomes more effective than malice. One lethal letter leads to a body in Manor House lake. At the house, heiress Valentine Grey receives shocking news with her wedding presents. Nasty notes may turn her wedding party into a wake--especially if the one person who can identify the village's secret sender ends up murdered.
