Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A woman declared dead in 1944 signs a marriage register in 1946.When a parish register is examined under transmitted light, probate genealogist Anna Harland discovers a third wedding witness hidden beneath repair tissue. The signature belongs to Iris Margaret Bell, yet the civil index says Iris died eighteen months before the ceremony.The mystery is tied to Number Eighteen Chapel Row, a terrace house Iris later left to "the woman who can prove I stood beside her when she married." No beneficiary was found, the property passed to the Crown and a long-standing tenant now faces removal for redevelopment.As Anna, records expert Maya Singh, Daniel Harland and Frances Morrow compare casualty files, ration records, wedding photographs, family letters and two nearly identical silver wrens, they uncover two cousins compressed into one death entry-and a living woman forced to use the margin because the official column refused her.The Witness in the Margin is a clean British inheritance mystery about mistaken identity, faithful friendship, hidden evidence and the possibility of correcting an old wrong without creating a new one. It is Book Eight of The Loughhaven Inheritance Mysteries and resolves its central case completely.
