THE SÉANCE OF MURDER

The Dunston Burnett Trilogy Book #3

Amateur Sleuth, Historical, Traditional

Lyn Squire

A Victorian séance turns deadly in the riveting finale to the Dunston Burnett Trilogy.


The Séance of Murder brings the Dunston Burnett Trilogy to its haunting conclusion. When Dunston, the series’ non-conventional amateur detective, is invited to the ancestral estate of the Crenshaw family, he expects an uneventful country visit — until a séance meant to summon the spirit of a long-dead ancestor turns fatal.

"If you're in the market for a good, old-fashioned English whodunnit, look no further. Lyn Squire's The Séance of Murder has it all."

~ Charles Salzberg, 3-time Shamus Award-nominee and author of the award-winning Second Story Man

and the upcoming The Beginning of Everything


"In this third and final Dunston Burnett book, author Lyn Squire hits it out of the park. Way, way out of the park.  Fans of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and Anthony Horowitz will embrace this book like a long-lost love returning after a perilous journey. Open the book and get started, you won’t be sorry."

~ Matt Cost, award-winning author of sixteen histories and mysteries, including the Mainely Mysteries,

the Clay Wolfe Trap Mysteries, and the Brooklyn 8 Ballo Mysteries
