Official synopsis Publisher
A desperate plea for assistance sends young Miss Dory Sparks scrambling to reach Wallisford Hall days before the coronation of King George VI, where her Aunt Gladys works as the cook. Domestic service had never been an intended career for Dory, but a plea from family could never be ignored, even, as it turns out, when her predecessor had been murdered in the very house Dory now worked. A stranger was blamed for the death, and Lord and Lady Wallisford and their grown children were not giving Detective Inspector Ridley from the Met an easy time to investigate alternative theories. No strangers had been seen in the district and Dory, with her position in the house, is increasingly drawn in the help.
