Cover for the detective case: Death at Ashford Hall

On the night of 15 November 1934, Sir Arthur Whitmore — Baronet, sixty-eight — is found dead in the study of his Gloucestershire estate. The doctor calls it a failing heart. The post-mortem calls it something else entirely. Five guests remained under the Hall's roof that night, and each had a reason to want the old man gone. The evidence is on the table. The solution is sealed. Can you name the killer before you break the seal?

AtmosphereA candlelit country-house whodunit: a dead baronet, a confined guest list and five secrets beneath one roof.

Best forA strong first case for readers of Agatha Christie, couples and groups who want a classic mystery with a clear starting point.

ChallengeDifficulty 3/5. The evidence is fair and the deduction is approachable, but every guest has a reason to lie.

Inside41 original documents, including statements, a floor plan, maps, correspondence, evidence photographs and a sealed solution.
