Eleanor Swift has spent the last few years travelling the world: taking tea in China, tasting alligators in Peru, escaping bandits in Persia and she has just arrived in England after a chaotic forty-five-day flight from South Africa. Chipstone is about the sleepiest town you could have the misfortune to meet. And to add to these indignities - she's now a Lady. Lady Eleanor, as she would prefer not to be known, reluctantly returns to her uncle's home, Henley Hall. Now Lord Henley is gone, she is the owner of the cold and musty manor. What's a girl to do? Well, befriend the household dog, Gladstone, for a start, and head straight out for a walk in the English countryside, even though a storm is brewing... But then, from the edge of a quarry, through the driving rain, Eleanor is shocked to see a man shot and killed in the distance. Before she can climb down to the spot, the villain is gone and the body has vanished. With no victim and the local police convinced she's stirring up trouble, Eleanor vows to solve this affair by herself. And when her brakes are mysteriously cut, one thing seems sure: someone in this quiet country town has Lady Eleanor Swift in their murderous sights..."--Publisher description. 541 $d 20220426. 650 $a Murder $v Fiction. 650 $a Women detectives $z England $v Fiction. 650 $a Nobility $v Fiction. 650 $a Nineteen twenties $v Fiction. 651 1 $a England $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a Cozy mysteries. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. 830 $a Lady Eleanor Swift Mystery ; $v 1. 941 $a 3 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119020208.0 952 $l ZXPC675 $d 20220813010133.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20220708012042.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EF17E69AFE8511ECB11692B73AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
