Family Affair — Mignon G. Eberhart

Home Is Where The Horror Is..

Suddenly, all the people she knew and loved seemed menacing and unfamiliar. It started right after Sarah Favor saw her fiance leave the country on a secret mission for the State Department. She came home -- and discovered the bloodstained body of her cousin Forte, a man disliked by all.

Now everyone in the wealthy house of Favor is trying to hide the murder...Corinna, the matriarch...Rosart, the prize-winning poet...Fanny, the spectacular opera singer...Norman, a promising Foreign Service officer like Sarah's boyfriend...even Gus, the handyman who is practically one of the family.

Has someone in her own home killed her cousin? Sarah isn't sure, but when an unknown attacker tries to strangle her, she is certain of one thing -- the killer has marked her as the next one to die....
