It's always interesting to find a new mystery writer, and after reading Room, I needed something light, so the fact that Carola Dunn has written eighteen Daisy Dalrymple mysteries was intriguing enough for me to do some more searching, so I downloaded one for my Kindle. It was called The Gunpowder Plot, takes place on a country estate in the Cotswolds, where Daisy, a journalist, is doing some research into Guy Fawkes Day, and where her friend's father is found shot to death along with a visitor from Australia. Daisy herself appears to be a bit of a "ditz"- it's her husband, Alec, a Scotland Yard detective who actually solves the mystery when he arrives.
Entertaining enough - probably a good one to read on The Tube while going back and forth from work in London!
