DESCRIPTION:
Two African students, refugees from Ian Smith's Rhodesia, arrive for the conference, escorted by Megan's bête noire from Scotland Yard. They are followed by two mysterious and sinister Londoners, whose allegiances and connections to the conference and the missing solicitor are unclear. With a raging storm having trapped everyone in the hotel, the stage is set for murder, and it's up to Eleanor and Megan to uncover the truth before more lives are lost.. After many years working around the world for an international charity in the late 1960s, Eleanor Trewynn has retired to the relative quiet of a small town in Cornwall. But her quiet life is short-lived when, due to her experience, the Commonwealth Relations

What a mess (mild spoilers ahead) Cat I've read all four of the books in this series and this one, like the others, is pleasant enough to read while also being incredibly frustrating.

My favourite part is where Eleanor's police detective niece Megan follows the kidnapper's van - the police car chase is a lot of fun - and the romance between Nick and Megan begins to heat up.
