ARSENIC WITH AUSTEN

Katherine Hyde

For fans of Hannah Dennison and Joanne Fluke, ARSENIC WITH AUSTEN is the first in the CRIME WITH THE CLASSICS series featuring a literature professor who retires only to find herself surrounded by murder cases that bear an eerie resemblance to some of her favorite books. When Emily Cavanaugh travels to the sleepy coastal village of Stony Beach, Oregon to claim an inheritance left to her by her great aunt - centered in a beautiful Victorian estate called Windy Corner - she hears hints that her aunt may have been murdered. Soon another murder confirms these suspicions. With the help of Sheriff Luke Richards, her once-and-possibly-future love, Emily discovers that underneath the innocent-looking rocks of Stony Beach lurk secrets that would have put Jane Austen's most reprobate characters to shame
