Dying For a Garden Party by VL McBeath

A dead body in the study, a lifetime of memories, and an old oak tree.
A garden party at Oak House, the home of Mr and Mrs Hartley, is the perfect way to bring the villagers of Moreton-on-Thames together.
Retired banker and self-made man, Mr Hartley dominates everyone around him. He's ruthless in business and frightened of no one, but since the accident he's spent his time as a recluse.
When his wife arranges a birthday party for him, it's the perfect cover for murder.
In a world where secrets and lies are the norm, amateur sleuth Eliza Thomson and her friend Connie are more than willing to help the police with their enquiries...
This is the fourth standalone story in theEliza Thomson Investigatesseries. If you like Miss Marple-style murder mysteries, and women sleuths with attitude, you'll love this historical British series.
