Millicent Wright and her mother have arrived from America to
visit Sir Oliver Longbourne whom they met in Chicago. Sir Oliver invited them to
visit and the main reason they come is Mrs. Wright is looking for a husband for
her daughter.
Sir Oliver is murdered in one of the first chapters and thus
begins the search for the person who killed him.
This is a quick read and it leads the reader into
following clues to the murders(s).
This is the first book I have read by Dara England and I will
give it a 4 star.
I loved the descriptions of Buckfast hall as well as the other
places in the book.
No sex and no bad language which was appreciated.
