Glitz, glamour—and murder. Can the unflappable Lady Marigold outwit a killer before more lives are derailed?
Constantinople, 1922. Lady Marigold Grey—former British spy and daring adventuress—sets out for England after inadvertently robbing her cousin of his inheritance. A long and dreary train journey lies ahead, but where Marigold goes, trouble follows. When the director of the train is found murdered—and false evidence linking her to the crime surfaces—Marigold suddenly finds herself on the fast track to becoming a prime suspect. Armed with her fashion-loving German assistant, her overly protective English butler, and her troublemaking fluffy white terrier, Marigold is determined to clear her name and stop the killer in their tracks. Complicating matters is the annoyingly handsome police detective on board. Not only does he seem impervious to her charms, but he’s also hell-bent on proving her guilt. As she unravels the tangled web of clues, Marigold is convinced she's closing in on the killer. But as the stakes rise, she realizes that the murderer will stop at nothing to cover their tracks—including targeting those she holds dear. Can Lady Marigold solve this perplexing case before the killer hands her a one-way ticket to demise?
