Caroline Graham: Murder at Madingley Grange (USA 2006) From the Publisher: Ah, the confidence of youth! Simon's grand plans quickly go awry, beginning with the guests -- each one dottier than the last -- and moving on to the staff, hired on the cheap and with larcenous plans of their own.

Caroline Graham: Murder at Madingley Grange (UK 1991) From the Publisher: From the conservatory to the contents of the claret cellar the clues are sprinkled like pot pourri, and the hired retainers Gaunt and Bennet provide the finishing touch. But when the guests arrive it is obvious that the business of murder is bound to run off course. For neither Derek, who refuses to relinquish his deerstalker, nor Mrs Gibbs, a card-sharping grandmother, nor Gillette, the 30s fiend complete with ukelele, nor any of the other ill-assorted bunch is happy to play the victim. And when a body does appear, it hardly takes a Hercule Poirot to guess it is not a volunteer. The game of detection must begin in earnest. Caroline Graham: Murder at Madingley Grange.
