A Step So Grave: A twisty and gripping cosy historical murder mystery: Dandy Gilver
Autor Catriona McPhersonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 mai 2019
'Another wry, witty puzzler!' Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
For better for worse, till death do us part.
1935, Highlands: Society lady - and sometimes detective - Dandy Gilver is not thrilled at the prospect of her son marrying Mallory Ross. She is even less thrilled at the prospect of meeting Lady Lavinia, Mallory's mother, at Lavinia's fiftieth birthday.
But be careful what you wish for . . .
Lady Lavinia is found murdered in her famous knot garden, and before long local superstitions and Gaelic folklore abound. Stepping into her (much-preferred) role as investigator, Dandy must confront a twisted family history, and - if there's time - show her son that he can do better.
A brilliantly thrilling and witty cosy historical mystery set in the picturesque Scottish village of Applecross in the 1930s. Perfect for fans of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and Richard Osman.

Everything I adore
McPherson's wit has been compared to that of PG Wodehouse or Nancy Mitford, and her finely researched and choreographed narratives to the work of Agatha Christie . . . an absolute delight . . . these are the perfect reads for a night by the fire.
An absolute must for anyone who likes cosy historical mysteries.
Plenty of twists to keep you guessing.
A deliriously fun tale, flawlessly written.
The 1930s setting is skilfully evoked and there are shades of Agatha Christie in the plotting.
