Julia works for a charity shop and has been assigned to the local Manor House to clear the belongings of a lady who lived there. The new owners are strangely in a big hurry to get everything cleared as quickly as possible. On her first day Julia discovers the body of the Colonel in his study, and it is obviously a murder.
Julia is determined to follow the clues because she did see a strange man leaving the premises around the time of the Colonels death. Both Garforth, the perfect butler and Biddy the housekeeper deny any person being present.
When a second death occurs within days, and tensions running high over inheritance, a secret well buried surfaces. One that would have affected the inheritance with the shares going to three, instead of two, if not for the second murder. Who stands to gain the most from the two murders, and the most unsuspected person becomes a person of interest.
A very pleasant cozy.
