About this ebook

A secret lies within the Kingston mansion's walls, a secret that’s about to bring the past into the present … 

Inside the Kingston mansion, Nelly Fisher, a curious housekeeper left to finish her duties during a bustling wedding, is surprised to find the door to Mr. Kingston’s office unlocked. The office is off-limits to staff. But today, Nelly can’t resist peeking inside.

Nelly enters and soon finds a hidden drawer beneath Mr. Kingston’s desk. The drawer is locked, but it’s not long before Nelly finds the key. As she riffles through the drawer’s contents, Nelly’s shocked when a long-kept secret reveals a truth about Mr. Kingston she hadn’t expected.

Nelly grabs her cell phone to snap a few photos, startled to find an unexpected intruder has entered the room … an intruder who’s been watching her every move … an intruder with a gun.

Time stands still as Nelly's life hangs in the balance as she’s left wondering if today will be her last. 

Ratings and reviews

A murder that happens during a wedding.... How did nobody hear the gun shots? This is a short, fun read. I love these "adventures" with Sloane and Maddie. The deadly sins series is an interesting sidespin on the original series. Highly recommend!! A murder that happens during a wedding.... How did nobody hear the gun shots? This is a short, fun read.

I really enjoyed this book. I thought I had figured out who the killer was, but I was wrong! Sloane and Maddie are at a wedding of a relative of Maddie's. When the guest return to the house for he reception, it is discovered that Nelly, the maid, has been murdered. Maddie asks Sloane to look into it much to the dismay of Coop, the local chief of police. This was a short book, but very interesting. It was a good read and I highly recommend it
