I need to stop reading Patricia Wentworth novels so close together. They are all generally enjoyable and well-crafted, but one starts to look much like another, especially if you read them back-to-back. Plot of this was eerily similar to Pilgrim's Rest, which I read last month and the similarities made the solution to the mystery far too transparent. Still, it was engaging. Miss Silver is doubtless one of my favorite nontraditional sleuths of the British golden age. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Är det här du? |
Ione is concerned with Allegra’s situation and discusses it with the girls’ godmother, who hires Miss Silver to go down and see exactly what is going on.
Miss Silver finds that Allegra has become addicted to narcotics and seeks to find out the supplier. There is also the question of Margot’s death from a strange accident. The girl may be a dare devil, but not to the point of causing her own death. And just how is Geoffrey going to buy this property he is obsessed with? The only one with read money is Allegra, but it isn’t easily accessible.
Once again Miss Silver’s experience in observation of behaviour helps her to sort out the real clues from the red herrings. ( )
