Miss Melville Returns by Evelyn E Smith--review

 This is the second in the Miss Melville series. It was first published in 1987. Miss Melville is an artist, who has an interesting past, that she prefers not to talk about.

 Brought up in high society in New York, Miss Melville finds it difficult to be rude to friends, or even acquaintances.  This often puts her in situations she would rather not be in.  

She is giving a speech at a gallery opening, because she did not want to exhibit her paintings there, and felt obligated.  While at the opening, a man dies.  Due to his death Miss Melville becomes involved with several rather odd people, and finds herself curious about the deceased. 

She ends up finding out several things about people she had known for a while, and is disappointed in things they had done, but none the less continues to investigate.

I found this fairly interesting, and will probably read the next in the series.
