Daisy discovers fresh blood in a tower infamous through history for dark deeds...

Now the mother of two-month-old twins, Daisy decides to resume her journalistic career by writing a piece for a new magazine on the Tower of London. On her visit she's not only given a tour of the Crown Jewels, she's also introduced to the Raven Master and the Yeoman Warders - and most importantly, she's been invited to attend the Ceremony of the Keys ritual, which involves spending the night in the haunted Bloody Tower.

Having survived the night, Daisy can't wait to get away the next morning and in her eagerness to leave, trips over the body of a yeoman warder. Daisy instantly realises that this is murder most foul on account of the halberd sticking out of his back. And with her husband assigned to investigate the case, Daisy one again finds herself enmeshed in a case of an unexplained murder at the Tower...

Praise for the Daisy Dalrymple series:

'Cunning... appropriate historical detail and witty dialogue are the finishing touches on this engaging 1920s period piece.' Publishers Weekly

'As always, Dunn evokes the life and times of 1920s England while providing a plot that is a cut above the average British cosy. This will delight readers who love country-house mysteries.' Booklist

'For fans of Dorothy L. Sayers' novels' Library Journal

Another fun installment in this entertaining series.

This is now on its way to Finland as a little "extra" with a Wishlist Tag Game book, hope you enjoy it as much as I did :-)

Thank you for a fat parcel. It's nice to have a parcel to myself, today Manne the Glen turned ten and so far she has got all the presents, guests and fine dining.

I've only seen the Tower from the outside, but I think that is quite enough. I'm not a friend of steep steps and places where there are lots of tourists. Daisy can be my guide.

Oops, the picture went sideways, but here is an oven made to look like the Tower of London, made by the Finnish sculptor Emil Wickström in Visavuori.

I must be getting old, too many yeomen and hotspurs for me to remember. Comparing to other books of the same series, this one seems to be a bit of a bore.
Crabtree's wife died of the Spanish Flu, which nowadays has been talk of the town again, with corona virus at large. Without the Spanish Flu there would be no me, because it killed Granny's first husband and only after that my no-good of a Grandpa got his chance.

My friend Elisabeth has liked this series, will pass this on to her.
