Murder Backstairs — Anne Austin
A James "Bonnie" Dundee Mystery
It had sounded pleasant enough for James "Bonnie" Dundee, the invitation to a weekend house party at the home of the parents of a college friend promised days of tennis and golf, and evenings of bridge and elegant dinners. But when the body of one of the young maids is found in the adjoining lake, Dundee, the newest member of the Hamilton Police's Homicide Squad finds himself in the middle of the investigation. With suspicion falling in turn on each member of the family, their featured guest, the butler, the chauffeur, and other servants, it becomes clear to him that the solution of the murder lies not in the secrets of the present, but in the secrets of the past. From the author of "Murder at Bridge, The Black Pigeon, The Avenging Parrot" and "One Drop of Blood."
