Marooned overnight by a snowstorm in a grand country house are a cast of characters and a setting that even Agatha Christie might recognize ��� a vicar, an Army major, a Dowager, a sleuth and his sidekick - except that the sleuth is Jackson Brodie, and the ���sidekick��� is DC Reggie Chase.\n\nThe crumbling house - Burton Makepeace and its chatelaine the Dowager Lady Milton - suffered the loss of their last remaining painting of any value, a Turner, some years ago. The housekeeper, Sophie, who disappeared the same night, is suspected of stealing it.\n\nJackson, a reluctant hostage to the snowstorm, has been investigating the theft of another The Woman with a Weasel, a portrait, taken from the house of an elderly widow, on the morning she died. The suspect this time is the widow���s carer, Melanie. Is this a coincidence or is there a connection? And what secrets does The Woman with a Weasel hold? The puzzle is Jackson���s to solve.���And let���s not forget that a convicted murderer is on the run on the moors around Burton Makepeace.\n\nAll the while, in a bid to make money, Burton Makepeace is determined to keep hosting a shambolic Murder Mystery that acts as a backdrop while the real drama is being played out in the house.\n\nA brilliantly plotted, supremely entertaining, and utterly compulsive tour de force from a great writer at the height of her powers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RANDOM HOUSE UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040227262711,"sku":"9780857526588","price":375.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/3973\/5543\/files\/8191413482493.jpg?v=1787778783","url":"https:\/\/www.2027textbooks.co.za\/products\/brodie-06-death-sign-of-the-rook-tpb-bc-9780857526588","provider":"2027Textbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
