The Forth Contention

William Darmon and his wife Elizabeth were powerful figures in the countryside of County Kent-pillars of the community who set society's pace from their expansive grounds known as Mayfair Hall. Now William's brother-in-law, Charles, a novice politician, has fallen victim to a scheme of the rival Forth family and has introduced a bill before Parliament known as the Writ of Confiscation that will cost the Darmon's their ancestral home unless they can find their missing deed. A late family friend has hidden the document on a trip to Egypt decades earlier and left clues to its location only visible in the night sky of 1825. As they begin to unravel the mystery, the body of a Forth family member turns up on the doorstep of Charles' manor.
