McKenna, Clara. Stella and Lyndy mystery #2

Sequel to: Murder at Morrington Hall

Following a whirlwind engagement to Viscount 'Lyndy' Lyndhurst, Stella Kendrick is finding her footing within an elite social circle in picturesque rural England. Outrage erupts and accusations fly after Lord Fairbrother's pony wins best in breed for the seventh consecutive year. When Stella and Lyndy discover his body floating in the river the next morning, it appears one of Stella's trusted new acquaintances may be a calculating killer. In the presence of hardly-grieving Lady Philippa Fairbrother-- once set to marry Lyndy-- and Lyndy's endlessly critical mother, Stella faces the bitter reality that she may always be an outsider. -- adapted from jacket
