Just up the coast lies a more traditional pleasure ground: Monte Carlo, where fortunes are won, lost, stolen, and hidden away. It's summertime on the Riviera, where the Jazz Age is busily reinventing the holiday delights of warm days on golden sand and cool nights on terraces and dance floors. Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes turn the Riviera upside-down to crack their most captivating case yet. When the investigation takes a treacherous turn, Kiera discovers just how deep the killer is willing to dig to keep their secrets from ever seeing the light of day. Identified as the duchessʼs son-in-law thought to be in Paris, it is evident the man met with foul play, and Kiera and Gage soon realize that a ruthless murderer walks among them - and may well be a member of the duchessʼs own family. Matters swiftly turn from irksome to downright deadly when the partygoers stumble upon a decomposing body in the castleʼs crypt. Upon their arrival at the opulent estate, it becomes obvious that the family appears to be under a great strain, and someone seems determined to cause mayhem among the guests with a series of forged notes. Kiera and Sebastian Gage have been invited to the Duchess of Bowmontʼs Twelfth Night party in Scotland.
