When Sophia Bertoli breaks off her engagement to Ronald Bream she never dreams that his star will rise as her own family fortunes diminish, and that twenty-three years later he will return to marry her niece and set off a chain of events that will climax in murder. Lively and imaginative, a spellbinding mystery in the classic tradition, Death on the Royal Hudson is a ride to the death accompanied by spectacular scenery, family feuds, romance, intrigue and a vendetta that hails back to the seventies. Enter the Beary family, whose connections to the Vancouver music scene and the volatile world of politics contain the thread that could unravel the tangled web and expose a cunning killer bent on vengeance.
“Discover the Bearys: an endearingly united, loving, upbeat and civic-minded family, every one of them imbued with a passion for justice. Elwood’s cleverly plotted west coast mysteries often exploit the author’s familiarity with theatre, opera, and British Columbia’s magnificent landscape. A uniquely Canadian series whose now-familiar characters I have come to love. You will too.” Barbara Kay, National Post columnist.
