Sins, Ties, and Weekend Demise (An Iris May Mystery)

By Christian Wright and Christian Wright

When Paula Holt left her newborn twin daughters on the steps of a small-town church twenty-five years ago, she never imagined how far the ripples of that choice would reach. Fast-forward to a stormy Labor Day weekend, where her mother, Amelia Holt, has gathered the family to celebrate her lavish 80th birthday at her grand country estate. But the festive weekend takes a sinister turn as secrets emerge--several guests, all conveniently named in Amelia's will, are in dire financial straits. When the lights go out during a fierce thunderstorm, Amelia is found dead, and her family's gathering spirals into a night of suspicion and fear. Iris is heartbroken by her aunt's murder and vows to find the truth before the killer can strike again. As she digs into Amelia's past, Iris uncovers that her aunt had been searching for the twin granddaughters she'd never known. Could the reunion Amelia hoped for be tied to her tragic death? Trapped by flooded roads and cut off from the outside world, Iris must race against the clock to piece together the family's tangled web of secrets--or risk becoming the killer's next target. This closed circle mystery delivers Golden Age intrigue with a modern heart. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie.
