When a glamorous death rocks the world of film and privilege, barrister Robert Forsythe and his razor-sharp secretary Abigail Sanderson are drawn into a web of deception where nothing — and no one — is quite what they seem. A Death for a Darling is a masterfully crafted classic whodunit set against the backdrop of the British upper classes, where old secrets fester beneath polished surfaces and every charming suspect conceals a motive sharp enough to kill. E.X. Giroux — the pen name of Canadian author Doris Shannon — writes with the elegant precision and dry wit of the golden age of detective fiction, crafting a narrative that honours the tradition of Agatha Christie while carving out a distinctive voice of its own. The Forsythe-Sanderson partnership crackles with intelligence and understated tension, delivering a mystery that is as psychologically rich as it is plot-driven. Fans of cosy British crime will find themselves utterly absorbed — and thoroughly outfoxed — long before the final, devastating reveal.
