Peril at Somner House by Joanna Challis

Have you ever wondered what your favorite author’s life is like? This book is a fictionalized account of the life of author Daphne du Maurier. This second novel featuring Daphne finds her stranded at Somner House, on an island in Cornwall. Soon after her arrival, her host is found dead and his wife is found in the arms of her lover.

This novel was an intriguing period piece that kept me guessing to the end. I recommend it to British mystery fans.
