This week’s letter is: H

This week pick: Heyer, Georgette — Why Shoot a Butler?

Why Shoot a Butler?

Why Shoot a Butler?

From Amazon/back blurb: On a dark night, along a lonely country road, barrister Frank Amberley stops to help a young lady in distress and discovers a sports car with a corpse behind the wheel. The girl protests her innocence, and Amberley believes her—at least until he gets drawn into the mystery and the clues incriminating Shirley Brown begin to add up…

Comment: I’ve never read one of her mysteries before, and I have to say that didn’t guess the murderer right away — and there’s more to the story than who killed the butler. Frank even makes the comment that his death is the least interesting part of the mystery. I’m almost finished with this book and I’m looking forward to reading her other mysteries.
