About this book

This short story marks Sarah Yarwood-Lovett's first entry in the Dr Nell Ward Mystery series. Readers are invited to Finchmere Manor, where Dr Nell Ward has solved many mysteries, to participate in the Finchmere Flash. Guests staying at Finchmere's Love Nest in the Victorian Folly are invited to take part in a cherished Ward family tradition: a treasure hunt. Created by Lord Beaumont as a token of devotion to his beloved wife, the Finchmere Flash has challenged generations of guests to follow clues, solve riddles, and pursue a mysterious prize. Dr Nell Ward knows firsthand how difficult the Flash can be, having been stumped more than once. This time, she hunts alongside Rav while competing against Shannon, James, Sylvia, and Connor in a race to solve the mystery and claim the prize.
