Murder at Melrose Court is the first book in the Heathcliff Lennox. The book introduces us to Major Heathcliff Lennox who is an ex-World War I pilot who was named after the character from Wuthering Heights by his romantic mother. It is around Christmas time when a dead body arrives on his doorstep, but why does it end on his doorstep? That’s the question that he’ll need to answer in this story. He’ll work with his uncle, Lord Melrose, to try and uncover the mystery as more murders begin to pile up.
Another great book in the series is called Death in Damascus. This story sees a damsel in distress in the distant city of Damascus and Lennox going to help. He’s not too keen on exotic locations, but he is persuaded to go by the ex-Chief Inspector. Once there, Lennox has his hands full when he discovers a movie crew, a spy, and a couple of mysterious ladies. Lennox must investigate a murder with mysteries of the ancient past lingering.
