Face Down Below the Banqueting House is book eight in the Face Down mystery series featuring Elizabethan gentlewoman, herbalist, and sleuth, Susanna, Lady Appleton. In 1573, Queen Elizabeth is on a royal progress in Kent and plans to visit Susanna's manor house, Leigh Abbey-an expensive and nerve wracking prospect for any householder. In preparation, a banqueting house is constructed in the branches of an ancient oak tree, but when a man is killed in a fall from that structure, it may be murder. Will that be enough to make the queen change her mind?

"Spirited and studded with wry humor" Kirkus

"Emerson's plot is deft and complex; she is at the top of her form here and leaves us with a breathless ending and lovely possibilities for future installments." Booklist
