Description:
<DIV><B>Murder leads to scandal at a wealthy woman’s mansion in this mystery from a <I>New York Times</I>–bestselling author with ten million books in print. </B><BR /><BR /> In an elaborate house known as the Cloisters, Maud Wainwright rules supreme. The queen of society in the small town of Beverly, she has a table long enough to seat one hundred, and she keeps an iron grip on the guest list. Her right-hand woman is Pat Abbott, a local girl who is beautiful, innocent, and kind. Pat has no idea how cutthroat high society can be, but she’s about to get a deadly first lesson.<BR />  <BR /> Pat has fallen head over heels in love with Maud’s son, Tony, a clever young rake with a single flaw: his vicious, gold-digging wife. At the same time that she is dangerously infatuated with a married man, Pat’s world is turned upside down by a series of attacks on the estate—and a truly shocking murder. To save Tony and Maud, Pat must find the killer. But the list of suspects is as long as one of Maud’s guest lists: When a woman has room at her table for one hundred friends, she’ll have more than her share of enemies.<BR />  <BR /> “Anyone who aspires to become a writer,” said the <I>New York Times</I>, “could not do better than to study carefully the methods of Mary Roberts Rinehart.” <I>The Great Mistake</I> is a classic example of the golden age murder mystery at its best.<BR />  </DIV>
