Death of a Wine Merchant by David Dickinson

Question: What do you do if a member of your familly is found shot dead and another member is found holding the gun and refusing to give an explanation?
Answer: Send for Lord Francis Powerscourt and all will be revealed.
This is the ninth Powerscourt investigation by David Dickinson and like all the others it is very well plotted, highly imaginative and excellently written. I will not spoil the enjoyment for potential readers by detailing the action but simply say that if you like Victorian/Edwardian detective stories you will love Lord Francis Powerscourt.
