Death at Wentworth Court by Carola Dunn. (A Daisy Dalrymple mystery #1) 233 pp.
I decided to re-read some of the early books in this series when I was up all night being unwell and didn't have the brainpower to give something new. Since I know that Daisy ends up marrying the Scotland Yard detective later in the series, it is interesting to see just how unlikely every character (including Daisy at this point) thinks a romance between the two of them is. I'd also forgotten that Daisy's dead fiance was a "conchie" who was killed while driving an ambulance, and how that circumstance keeps her from getting normal support from friends and acquaintances, who despise the man because of his conscientious objector status.
