Under the Arbor

By Aveney Leigh

A murder. A wedding. A series of secrets...

Scarlet Douglas is found dead at the bottom of a staircase only minutes before her own wedding. As her cousin and maid of honor, Celina Paxton is accused of murdering Scarlet. The evidence against her builds-an argument before the fall, a shared romantic history with the groom, Arthur Murphy, and a rivalry at work.

Celina is charged with first-degree murder. Her relatives and boyfriend distance themselves from her, but Frank Zane, a selfless childhood friend, believes she's innocent and supports her. As Celina's attorney, Tonya Hernandez, and her investigator, Don Mallard, interview witnesses, more secrets surface, and Celina is no longer the only one with a motive to kill Scarlet.

The possibilities are endless. Sybil, Scarlet's mother-in-law-to-be, who used to hate Scarlet. Ted Miller, who had been having an affair with Scarlet. Or Arthur Murphy, the groom himself. With the odds stacked against her, Celina must convince the jury that she is not guilty.
