Another excellent Daisy Dalrymple murder mystery from Carola Dunn. Daisy with her new husband Inspector Alex Fletcher and step-daughter Belinda are invited to spend Christmas at Brockdene, home of the Earl of Westmoor. When they arrive it is to discover that they are to be entertained by Westmoor's poor relations the Norvilles. In no time Daisy, wearing her journalists hat, has collected numerous stories of the familly's colourful past but none that compares with the tangled web of inheritance that entwines the current generation. When a guest, who could have settled the inheritance question, is found stabbed in the old chapel Inspector Fletcher is denied the quiet familly Christmas he was anticipating and is plunged into the police investigation. Naturaly his attempts to exclude Daisy from the action are futile. Another good 'un from Carola Dunn.
