Vivian Conroy

In this historical mystery, a retired detective heads to the French Riviera where a dying billionaire plays a twisted game with nine would-be heirs.

 At the lush Villa Calypso on the French Riviera, a dying billionaire launches a devious plan: at midnight each day he appoints a new heir to his vast fortune. If he dies within twenty-four hours, that person takes it all. If not, their chance is gone forever. 

 Yet these are no ordinary beneficiaries, these men who crossed him, women who deceived him, and distant relations intent on reclaiming the family fortune. All are determined to lend death a hand and outwit their rivals in pursuit of the prize. 

 As tensions mount with every passing second, retired Scotland Yard investigator Jasper must stay two steps ahead of every player if he hopes to prevent the billionaire’s devious game from becoming a testament to murder . . . 

 Suspenseful from the first page to the last, A Testament to Murder is perfect for fans of And Then There Were None, Murder on the Orient Express, Crooked House, and Glass Onion. 
Includes the first chapter from Honeymoon with Dead, the next book in the Murder Will Follow series.

 Even more stunned than Jasper is the woman’s husband, Lord Bantham, who has since remarried, not to mention his new wife who sees her acquired position and wealth slip away. Then there are her old friends who all seem to have known more about the “accident” than they ever let on. 

 When the resurrected lady is found dead the next morning on one of Venice’s many bridges, the question is: who wanted Lady Bantham to die, again?

Under the Guise of Death

Following Under the Guise of Death, former Scotland Yard investigator Jasper is back on the case, this time in the glamorous and cultured city of Vienna.
 
 The opening of an archaeological exhibition brings with it intrigue and evil as a fabled cursed golden death mask lives up to its dark past and death strikes at the exhibition. While digging up pieces of history, these archaeologists have also been burying secrets—deadly ones—and it’s up to Jasper to uncover the truth before the murderer strikes again.
 
 With a nosy journalist desperate to breathe life into the rumor that the mask brings bad luck to anyone possessing it, and the police eager to blame a famous cat burglar who recently pulled off a string of daring robberies, Jasper is on his own in bringing the true culprit to light.
