Edgar Award-shortlisted author Ashley Weaver returns with A Most Novel Revenge, the charming next instalment in the delightful 1930s Amory Ames mystery series

"A pleasant reminder of Golden Age mysteries that keep you guessing until the denouement." --Kirkus Reviews

"Fascinating and stylish characters fill out a finely tuned traditional mystery." --Publishers Weekly

"Well, darling, who do you suppose will turn up dead this time?"

With two murder investigations behind them and their marriage at last on steady ground, Amory and Milo Ames intend to winter quietly in Italy. The couple finds their plans derailed, however, when Amory receives an urgent summons to the English countryside from her cousin Laurel. At Lyonsgate, the country house of Laurel's friend Reginald Lyons, Amory and Milo are surprised to discover an eccentric and distinguished group of guests have also been invited, led by the notorious socialite Isobel Van Allen.

After years of social exile, Isobel has returned to England to write a sequel to her scandalous first book, the thinly fictionalized account of a high society murder at the very country house to which the Ameses have been called. Her second incriminating volume, she warns the house's occupants--all of whom were present when one of their companions was killed years ago--will tell everything that really happened that fateful night. But some secrets are meant to stay buried, and when a desperate person turns to murder, it's up to Amory and Milo to sort through a web of scandal and lies to uncover the truth, and the identity of a killer.

Also out now in the Amory Ames mysteries: Murder at the Brightwell and Death Wears a Mask

Comfortable Socks, color variety not as implied
Size: Medium, Color: True Gray Heather Assorted (6 Pairs)
Pros: Comfortable socks, with wide, not tight band at the ankle. Wish I'd bought them sooner. Con: Amazon description shows a photo of 6 pairs of socks, 2 black, 2 gray, and 2 white. The pack actually comes with 2 black, 1 white, and 3 pairs of gray. Haven't washed them yet. Will see how they stand up.

Not polyester! Thank you UA!
I never realized shopping for cotton socks in 2024 would be so difficult. Luckily I found these, and all the other Under Armour cotton socks and they are the best. I cannot wear polyester, and these only have like 1%. I didn't realize our cotton is being replaced by polyester, and I don't like it. Bath towels don't work anymore either... I need my cotton socks and towels, I love incandescent light bulbs, I'll always have a gas powered mower and leaf blower. Also butterfinger should've never their recipe. Just sayin...

Great sock for everyday
Size: Large, Color: Black/Gray (6 Pairs)
So these are awesome but they are slightly thinner than older versions, shorter too. Just FYI if you a long time UA customer. If you have never had their socks, I love them personally and only like one other brand better. They aren’t overly thick and they allow your feet to breath. I never have sweaty feet in these even in my warm boots. I also like that they don’t cut into my feet or get holes in the toes over long terms. The only reason I’ve thrown these out has been fraying near the ankle or someone (kids) thieving them.

LOVE THEM!!
Size: Small, Color: (001) Black / Black / Castlerock
LOVE! These socks are so comfortable! I wear a 5 in women's and a 3 in big kid shoes. The small fit me perfectly. I see where some say they run small but I can't say that was an issue for me. They are "snug" but thats what you want with a no show sock. I feel they have support vs the ones i used to buy at Walmart. They are very soft! I am actually buying more today and throwing my other ones in the trash!
