When a Halloween bash ends in double murder, Scotland Yard sends Lord Hetheridge and his team to investigate in Blue Murde r, the second book in the bestselling Lord & Lady Hetheridge Mystery Series. In London's fashionable Chelsea, the sons and daughters of the rich and powerful are indulging in a Halloween bash. Society princess Emmeline Wardle, daughter of a frozen food baron, screams blue murder when two university schoolmates are found dead—golden boy Trevor Parsons and pasty computer nerd Clive French. Given the social connections of all involved, New Scotland Yard sends a real baron to investigate: Chief Superintendent Anthony Hetheridge, also known as Lord Hetheridge, ninth baron of Wellegrave. Just as Hetheridge and his team, DS Kate Wakefield and DS Deepal "Paul" Bhar, believe they have the suspects nailed down, they discover an acquitted killer living next door to the murder house. Five years ago, Sir Duncan Godington was accused of doing in his family, but the jury fell in love with him, and the Crown failed to convict him. After his acquittal, he kept a low profile, throwing lavish galas and restoring his place among the rich and titled. Did he commit the double murder? Has he come out of retirement at last? The Lord & Lady Hetheridge cozy mystery series: Book #1, ICE BLUE Book #2, BLUE MURDER Book #3, SOMETHING BLUE Book #4, BLACK & BLUE Book #5, BLUE BLOODED Book #6, BLUE CHRISTMAS Book #7, UNTRUE BLUE First, I'd like to thank all my readers for their kind words, loyalty, and patience. Especially their patience! The two questions new readers always ask are, "Will there be more Hetheridge--'Blue'--books?" and "What else have you written?" Regarding question one, will there be more Lord & Lady Hetheridge books, the answer is a resounding yes. I have no plans to end the series. As long as I can write, I'll be writing about Tony & Kate and their friends. It's just that simple. At the moment, I'm writing book #8, which will be called LONDON BLUE. Regarding question two, I'm thrilled to tell you that I have two other series. The first is the Dr. Benjamin Bones Mysteries . Set during the Second World in my imaginary Cornish village, Birdswing, it's a fun, nostalgic, romantic cozy mystery series. When Dr. Bones is selected to serve his country at home during the war, he becomes adopted by a rural community very different from London. Packed with great characters, entertaining storylines, and complex mysteries, it's a perfect choice for anyone who is waiting (patiently, or impatiently) for another Hetheridge book. I also write the Jem Jago Mysteries , published by Bookouture. Set in the Isles of Scilly, an English archipelago off the coast of Cornwall, it concerns Jemima Jago—librarian, thirty-something singleton, and intrepid amateur sleuth. There are five books in all, and contain some of my funniest scenes. . Emma Jameson is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Lord & Lady Hetheridge cozy mystery series. Book #1, ICE BLUE, Book #2, BLUE MURDER, Book #3, SOMETHING BLUE, Book #4, BLACK & BLUE, Book #5, BLUE BLOODED, Book #6, BLUE CHRISTMAS, and Book #7, UNTRUE BLUE, are available now.

In her spare time she is Head Servant to four cats: Howard the fat tabby, James the mischievous Tuxie, Zahara the imperious purebred grand dame, and Bobby the savvy ex-street cat.
