Murder at Mount Ephraim is the ninth book in Julie Wassmer's
popular crime series - now a major Acorn TV drama, Whitstable
Pearl, starring Kerry Godliman as private detective and
restaurateur, Pearl Nolan 'While Oxford had Morse, Whitstable,
famous for its oysters, has Pearl' Daily Mail Pearl Nolan receives
a wedding invitation from an old school friend. Journalist Amy has
chosen somewhere very special for the wedding ceremony - the
historic Kent manor house of Mount Ephraim - and the invite
includes a pre-nuptial stay for Pearl and other guests at this
venue. Nestled in an 800-acre estate, and surrounded by beautiful
gardens and a lake, Pearl sees this break as a chance to leave
crime behind, along with her own detective agency and her
restaurant, The Whitstable Pearl. Accepting the invitation, Pearl
looks forward to meeting the happy couple's friends and family, as
well as Amy's fiance, Guy, a handsome and successful adventurer who
appears to be Mr Perfect. She also has time to reflect on her own
engagement to Canterbury CID detective, DCI Mike McGuire... But
before any wedding bells sound, murder strikes - and Pearl and
McGuire are thrust together again - as partners in crime. Praise
