Foxborough Manor

A reunion weekend. A staged mystery game. An old inn that remembers everything. Simone Ashford has spent years preparing the perfect weekend at Foxborough Manor, a warm Cotswold-style inn with honeyed stone walls, cozy parlors, excellent fudge, and just enough old secrets to make everyone behave badly. The plan is simple: gather a group of former classmates, assign them dramatic aliases, guide them through a clever reader-driven mystery game, and finally force one particular guest to face the truth he left behind. But Foxborough Manor has other ideas. Before dinner is over, the game is running ahead of schedule, the clues are surfacing in the wrong order, and Simone's carefully built dossier is no longer enough to control the weekend. A missing brooch, a forgotten photograph, a bracelet stamped 1985 F.M., and one quiet man in Room Twelve begin pulling the reunion toward a truth that has waited forty years to be spoken. There is no body in the library. No blood on the carpet. No detective with all the answers. Just a house full of people who remember different versions of the same past - and one woman who may have built an entire mystery game to avoid solving the only mystery that ever truly mattered. Warm, witty, and emotionally satisfying, Foxborough Manor is a reader-guided cozy mystery about friendship, regret, second chances, old secrets, and the strange mercy of finally hearing the whole story. All paths lead to the truth. The only question is how you choose to find it.
