Gunpowder Plot
A Daisy Dalrymple Mystery

In the winter of 1924, Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher travels to a school friends house to witness the estates famous Guy Fawkes celebration. But she gets more than the quiet weekend at the quaint family manse that she was originally hoping for. The home is the site of some severe family tension. The Viscount and head of the family is a strict and unyielding sort, insisting that everyoneespecially his childrenmeet his own unreasonable expectations. On the evening of the Guy Fawkes celebration, the Viscount is found dead on the floor of his study, killed by his own hand. Whats more, he apparently first killed a guesta married woman visiting England from Australiabefore turning the gun on himself. Now its up to Alec Fletcher, Daisys husband and a DCI of Scotland Yard, to unravel the mystery and the long-held family secrets that led to this state of affairs. But a solution will require, perhaps, more than a little help from Daisy herself.
