"Carole's estranged relationship with her son Stephen has improved since he started seeing Gaby Martin, and she cannot be more pleased that they've decided to marry in Fethering. She does find it a bit odd, though, that Gaby's parents have no interest in arranging the wedding. Whatever happened to the tradition of the meddling mother-of-the-bride?" "Upon finally meeting the Martins, Carole finds that the timid couple not only wishes to avoid the duties of a bride's parents, but that they are terrified at the prospect of publicizing the wedding. They are willing, however, to throw the couple an engagement party - affording Carole the less-than-pleasing prospect of spending time in the company of her ex-husband." "But the dull event turns dead intriguing when the father of the bride disappears - only to be found brutally murdered the following morn. Now, Carole elicits Jude's help in sifting through the guest list - including Gaby's nefarious brother and justice of the peace uncle - before her son marries into a family with a rather suspicious history."--BOOK JACKET.Brett, Simon is the author of 'Witness At The Wedding A Fethering Mystery', published 0013 under ISBN 9780425202852 and ISBN 0425202852.
