[Elizabeth Hawthorne 05] • Murder at the Observatory

Galaxies, guile, and a deadly night sky.

When a rare celestial event ends in tragedy, Lady Elizabeth Hawthorne's island retreat becomes a deadly paradise. The celebrated astronomer Professor Magnus Whitaker is found dead – an apparent suicide after a humiliating failure. But the constellation of clues points to a more sinister truth.

With each guest harbouring their own dark matter, she must navigate a treacherous maze of lies and betrayal. As whispers of blackmail and long-buried secrets orbit the secluded island, the line between ally and adversary blurs like a distant nebula.

With the cosmic clock ticking and danger lurking in every shadow, Elizabeth must align the stars of truth before the killer strikes again. In this deadly game of celestial chess, can she outmanoeuvre a killer who seems to map the sphere with deadly precision? Or will she be eclipsed by their murderous machinations?
