In this third Nora Tierney Mystery, American writer Nora awaits the arrival of a traveling theatre groups who will stage Noel Coward's play "Blithe Spirit" at her temporary home, Ramsey Lodge in England's Lake District.

Her son now six months old, Nora must juggle parenting with helping her friend Simon Ramsey run the lodge. She's also hoping to further her relationship with the only lodge guest not in the cast: Detective Inspector Declan Barnes, ostensibly there from Oxford for a hiking trip.

When a series of pranks and accidents escalate to murder during a horrendous flood, Nora realizes her child is in jeopardy and determines to help Declan unmask a killer.

Contemporary but written in traditional English mystery style, the book contains chapter epigrams that are lines from the play. A copy of the book has been requested for Noel Coward's archives by his estate.
