Tentang eBook ini
A roaring twenties murder mystery unfolds amidst a traditional British Guy Fawkes celebration.
In the winter of 1924, Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher travels to a school friend's house to witness the estate's famous Guy Fawkes celebration. But the quaint family manse holds more than a quiet weekend, as severe family tension simmers beneath the surface. The Viscount, the head of the family, is a strict and unyielding man, insisting that everyone - especially his children - meet his unreasonable expectations.
On the evening of the bonfire festivities, the Viscount is found dead in his study, apparently having taken his own life. However, the discovery of a murdered guest - a married woman visiting from Australia - raises suspicions. Daisy's husband, DCI Alec Fletcher of Scotland Yard, must unravel the mystery and long-held family secrets before the tragic cycle claims another victim. With Daisy's keen insight and inquisitive nature, the couple delves into a complex web of intrigue in this riveting 1920s country house murder mystery.
In Gunpowder Plot, Carola Dunn crafts an atmospheric historical cozy, filled with suspense, a richly portrayed cast of characters, and the charm of a traditional British Guy Fawkes Day celebration turned deadly. Amateur sleuth Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher shines in this gripping installment of the beloved series.
