A very English murder

England, 1920. Adventurer Lady Eleanor has spent recent years travelling extensively – China, Peru, Persia – and has just arrived in Chipstone, the sleepiest town in the world, from Africa. She reluctantly returns to the cold and musty estate of her uncle, Lord Henley. What is she to do here? For starters, she befriends a dog named Gladstone. While out for a walk in a downpour, she glimpses a man being shot in the distance. But by the time she gets to the scene, the killer is gone and the body has vanished. Since there is no victim, the police are convinced that Eleanor is making it all up. She vows to uncover this mystery herself. However, when the brakes on her car fail, one thing is certain: someone wants her dead. If you enjoy witty dialogue, charming intrigue and are a fan of Agatha Christie, this detective story is perfect for you!
