The Tomb of the Chatelaine by Karen Baugh Menuhin
In his younger days, Lord Godolphin Sinclair was an adventurer, a gold prospector, and an arms dealer. Now that he's old, he's not that much better. He has always been ruthless about amassing wealth. He is afraid of nothing, until he receives a mysterious package that has a direct link to his past. When dead bodies begin turning up, he calls Major Heathcliff Lennox and ex-Inspector Swift to his country home, Lanscombe Park, to investigate. Lennox with his dog Mr. Fogg, his cat Tubs, and his long-suffering butler Greggs (who always seems to find a lady friend on their adventures) journeys to Lanscombe Park, to help solve the crime but also hoping to reconnect with his maybe-girlfriend Persi.
I love mysteries set at English country houses! This is #6 in the Heathcliff Lennox series (don't call him Heathcliff!). They are light, cozy mysteries with great characters and humor. Great fun!
