The Wrong Rite

Miss Sir Caradoc Rhys's 90th birthday party? Madoc and Janet Rhys wouldn't dream of it. It's May Day in Wales, the ancient Beltane. The harps are strumming, the feast is spread, and Rhyses galore are gathered for the revels. There's Rhys the patriarch, Rhys the opera star, Rhys the actress, Rhys the Friend of the Lesser Demons... and a sinister someone with a lust for the family treasure and a most ingenious secret weapon. When the Beltane Fire is finally lighted and one of the Rhyses goes all to pieces, it's Rhys the Mountie--Detective Inspector Madoc Rhys of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police--and his wife Janet who must sort out a hideous farrago of sorcery, thievery, and wicked, treacherous murder.

This is #5 in A Madoc and Janet Rhys Mystery.
