Another solid addition to a good series. Max and Annie Darling are having a party to celebrate the opening of their restored antebellum mansion, but delays in the construction have forced them to have the celebration in the pavilion nearby. Unknown to them, it is the location of a death 10 years ago, and among their guests are all the friends involved, including Iris, who had disappeared after that fateful event and is now back to try to recover her memory and make amends for her transgressions. When she is found strangled, the old case is re-opened as it now becomes obvious it was murder instead of an accident, or there would have been no reason to kill Iris. Who among their friends is responsible? Max is reluctant to get involved but when an attempt is made on their lives he realizes they have no choice but to help catch a killer.

This series has been solid over the years, and Max and Annie and all their friends as entertaining as ever.
