A Magnet for Murder

image

No matter what or where, she is near someone being murdered. Daisy is on assignment for a magazine article about a 400 year old celebration of Guy Fawkes at the estate of the Tyndall family. Guy Fawkes is an English holiday in November with lots of fireworks. The evening begins with the guests arriving and the wonderful display of the fireworks but it ends with a murder suicide. The Lord of the Manor appears to have shot a woman from Australia and then turned the gun on himself. Daisy’s husband, Alec Fletcher, is a Scotland Yard Detective and called in on the case. Gunpowder Plot by Carola Dunn is the latest installment of the Daisy Dalrymple Mystery Series. Daisy, a modern British woman in the 1920’s, is the daughter of a Viscount but that didn’t stop her from going out on her own. A likeable, cheerful character, she must navigate between the older Victorian generation and her own freer ideas. This series is a delightful account of Daisy’s entanglements with many different murders, and this latest adventure is fun and enjoyable.
