Fall of a Philanderer (Daisy Dalrymple Mystery) Book

In the summer of 1924, the Honourable Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher is off on a summer holiday by the sea with her step-daughter Belinda, Belinda+s chum Deva, and Daisy+s husband, Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher of Scotland Yard. Daisy is anticipating a relaxing, non-dramatic holiday. But Daisy doesn+t have that kind of luck. It seems that a low-rent Don Juan has been busily seducing the local womanfolk and, in a town this small, no secret is kept for long. As is amply illustrated when the Fletcher+s simple picnic is interrupted by the discovery of a broken body at the foot of the cliff-that of the philandering local innkeeper of bad memory. Like Jacqueline Winspear+s much-praised novels about Maisie Dobbs, Carola Dunn vividly evokes the life and times of 1920+s England wrapped in a classic mystery to delight her many fans.Read More
