Death at Daisy's Folly by Robin Paige

One of the better American efforts at an English whodunnit. Americans are fascinated by European Aristocracy but unable to understand how it works and therefore make some quite hilarious mistakes. Robin Paige evades most of the pitfalls but still maintains that because Charles Sheridan is due to inherit a Barony he would not be able to marry an American writer. Whilst such an alliance would have raised eyebrows, especialy among mothers with eligible daughters, there was no legal bar to such a marriage. That out of the way it is a good read well written and with an intriguing plot.
