Then, after a quiet engagement party, Harold disappears ...only to be found dead the next day, in a burnt out car in Epping Forest. While the family try to deal with their grief, Carole discovers they are concealing secrets that can be traced back thirty years, to the murder of Marie's best friend.

 ... Gaby, however, clearly does not want to discuss the 'history of murder' which Stephen alludes to at a polite family lunch. Carole is intrigued, but being a thoughtful woman obsessed with the polite nuances of social interaction, she decides that there will be plenty of time to get to know all about Gaby's background, and worries about where the wedding will be held instead.

The opening sentence made me wince: 'Oh, I didn't tell you there's a history of murder in my fiancée's family, did I?' To me, this seemed clumsy and overly provocative: not a good start.
