Death comes to the town of Bascombe Fells and threatens to tear it apart as the townspeople wonder who was the murderer. Was it the groom who needed to marry to collect his inheritance, one of the brides numerous former suitors, a jealous woman in love with the groom? Or was it someone from outside; jewel thieves or someone seeking vengeance for some past slight? These are the suspects that detective Alan Ford is faced with as he tries to discover the murderer of . . . The Bride of a Moment
