Murder in the Bell Tower: An Arabella Grey Mystery

By Mandy Ludick

On Easter morning, the bells rang-but the bellringer did not walk away.

When the body of Josiah Rudge is discovered hanging in the bell tower of Wethersby's ancient church, whispers spread like wildfire. The villagers murmur of curses, of divine punishment, of sins that echo from the past. But Arabella Grey isn't convinced by tales of wrath or repentance.

As the sharp-eyed amateur sleuth digs deeper, Arabella uncovers coded hymnals, hidden compartments in pews, and a sealed vault buried beneath the sanctuary-a relic from the English Civil War with secrets still dangerous in the Edwardian present. With tensions rising in the parish council, a firebrand preacher stirring old fears, and the church's own past closing in, Arabella must determine whether the killer is a zealot... or someone with far more pragmatic motives to kill.

When justice rings out, will anyone be left to hear it?

Mandy Ludick returns with the sixth installment of the acclaimed Arabella Grey Mysteries-a richly layered historical whodunnit steeped in atmospheric suspense, secret legacies, and the quiet bravery of a woman who refuses to let the past stay buried.

Perfect for fans of Ann Granger, C.J. Archer, and Sarah Waters.
