Publisher's Summary

Unflappable flapper and Town & Country scribe Daisy Dalrymple searches for a killer whose vicious pen matches a murderous heart in this delightful installment of Dunn's cozy mystery series.

In the 1920s, in post - World War I England, the Honorable Daisy Dalrymple, newly engaged to Detective Inspector Alec Fletcher, is asked by her brother-in-law to discreetly investigate a series of poisoned pen letters that many of the local villagers have been receiving. When the pompous and unbearable brother of the local vicar is killed by a very large rock, dropped on his head from a great height, it seems clear to all that this campaign of gossip has escalated to murder. With the help of her husband, who'd rather she not get involved, Daisy tries to uncover who wrote the letters and who that person has driven to murder before the killer strikes again.

EntertIning story a day characters.

I enjoyed the story and characters. The reader makes frequent mistakes in pronunciation and her interpretation of the characters is strange. It's a shame as I really enjoy these stories. The reader of the first two books was much better.

Great story, the narrator, however, not great.

I love the stories in this series but Mia Chiaromonte is not a great narrator. She has an inability to change voice and accent for the characters and she mispronounces a lot of the words, especially French words which we use in everyday English, eg. pique. This is my second run through this series. Things improve vastly with Lucy Rayner as narrator.
