In der Welt der Reichen und Schönen ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt ... Jane Wunderly stolpert mitten in ihren ersten Fall, von der Gewinnerin des Agatha Awards Erica Ruth Neubauer!
Jane Wunderly und ihre Tante Millie besuchen das Mena House Hotel - ein Luxus Resort, das der High Society aus der ganzen Welt erlaubt, hier die Nachwirkungen des ersten Weltkriegs zu vergessen und die Alkohol Prohibition zu umgehen. Die charmanten Gäste des Hotels sorgen bei Jane für Zerstreuung - allen voran der mysteriöse Banker Mr Redvers. Doch auf den scheint es auch die attraktive Anna Stainton abgesehen zu haben und stellt gleich zu Beginn klar, dass sie das Rampenlicht mit niemandem teilt. Als ausgerechnet Jane es ist, die bald darauf Annas Leiche findet, steht sie schnell im Zentrum der polizeilichen Ermittlungen. Schafft sie es, ihre Unschud zu beweisen und herauszufinden, wem der Hotelgäste sie trauen kann und wer mehr als nur ein dunkles Geheimnis zu verbergen hat? Dies ist eine überarbeitete Neuauflage des bereits erschienenen Hörbuchs Mord im Mena House.
For young American widow Jane Wunderly, there are worse fates than adventuring aboard a transatlantic liner with the only man who could change her mind about romance. Unfortunately, her first-class itinerary has an unexpected—and deadly—addition waiting just below deck . . . Atlantic Ocean, 1926: Voyaging from Southampton to New York, self-reliant Jane is determined to prove herself a worthy investigator on the stately ship—even awkwardly going undercover as the fashionable wife of her magnetic partner, Mr. Redvers. Few details are known about the rumored German spy the duo have been tasked with identifying among fellow passengers, but new troubles unfold once wealthy newlywed Vanessa FitzSimmons announces the sudden disappearance of her husband at sea . . . Miles Van de Meter, the man Vanessa rushed to marry in Monte Carlo, has allegedly vanished into thin air along with his luggage. Redvers guesses the shifty heiress may be weaving tall tales for fun between flutes of champagne, yet Jane isn't convinced—not after the stunning murder of a trusted acquaintance sends them into uncharted waters. Facing two dangerous mysteries and a boat load of suspects, Jane must navigate a claustrophobic quest for answers before the culprits can slip from her grasp on land . . . or, worse, ensure she and Redvers never reach their destination.
In the wake of World War I, Jane Wunderly- a thoroughly modern young American widow- is traveling abroad, enjoying the hospitality of an English lord and a perfectly proper manor house, until murder makes an unwelcome appearance . . .
England, 1926: Wedgefield Manor, deep in the tranquil Essex countryside, provides a welcome rest stop for Jane and her matchmaking Aunt Millie before their return to America. While Millie spends time with her long-lost daughter, Lillian, and their host, Lord Hughes, Jane fills the hours devouring mystery novels and taking flying lessons- much to Millie's disapproval. But any danger in the air is eclipsed by tragedy on the ground when one of the estate's mechanics, Air Force veteran Simon Marshall, is killed in a motorcar collision.
The sliced brake cables prove this was no accident, yet was the intended victim someone other than Simon? The house is full of suspects- visiting relations, secretive servants, strangers prowling the grounds at night- and also full of targets. The enigmatic Mr. Redvers, who helped Jane solve a murder in Egypt, arrives on the scene to once more offer his assistance. It seems that everyone at Wedgefield wants Jane to help protect the Hughes family. But while she searches for answers, is she overlooking a killer hiding in plain sight?

Im Mena House Hotel ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt ... Der spannende Cosy Krimi für Fans von Rhys Bowen.
Ägypten, 1926: Die Amerikanerin Jane Wunderly und ihre Tante Millie besuchen das Mena House Hotel, ein exotisches Juwel im Herzen Kairos, wo Cocktails fließen und mit kleinen Abenteuern die Nachwehen des ersten Weltkrieges zerstreut werden. Dort gastieren die Reichen und Schönen aus aller Welt - leider auch Anna Stainton. Die junge Frau stellt klar, dass sie mit niemandem das Rampenlicht teilen wird, besonders nicht mit Jane. Als ausgerechnet sie diejenige ist, die über die Leiche ihrer unbeabsichtigten Rivalin gebeugt steht, wird Jane allerdings schnell zum Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit. Sie muss herausfinden wem sie trauen kann und welcher der Gäste ein Motiv für einen brutalen Mord hat. Schnell wird klar, dass hinter der glänzenden Fassade des Hotels mehr Geheimnisse und Gefahren lauern als vermutet ...
Well-heeled travelers from around the world flock to the Mena House Hotel--an exotic gem in the heart of Cairo where cocktails flow, adventure dispels the aftershocks of World War I, and deadly dangers wait in the shadows . . .
Egypt, 1926. Fiercely independent American Jane Wunderly has made up her mind: she won't be swept off her feet on a trip abroad. Despite her Aunt Millie's best efforts at meddling with her love life, the young widow would rather gaze at the Great Pyramids of Giza than into the eyes of a dashing stranger. Yet Jane's plans to remain cool and indifferent become ancient history in the company of Mr. Redvers, a roguish banker she can't quite figure out . . .
While the Mena House has its share of charming guests, Anna Stainton isn't one of them. The beautiful socialite makes it clear that she won't share the spotlight with anyone--especially Jane. But Jane soon becomes the center of attention when she's the one standing over her unintentional rival's dead body. Now, with her innocence at stake in a foreign country, Jane must determine who can be trusted, and who had motive to commit a brutal murder. Between Aunt Millie's unusual new acquaintances, a smarmy playboy with an off-putting smile, and the enigmatic Mr. Redvers, someone has too many secrets. Can Jane excavate the horrible truth before her future falls to ruin in Cairo . . . and the body count rises like the desert heat?
"With deft characterizations, an engaging plot, and the most compelling heroine I've found since Amelia Peabody, Erica Ruth Neubauer's Murder at Mena House is the best book you'll read this year.' TASHA ALEXANDER, author of In the Shadow of Vesuvius
