God Save the Queen

At gloomy Gossinger Hall, where the chill of centuries calls for three sweaters, Sir Henry Gossinger has just dropped a bombshell. He has announced to all that he has rewritten his will, bequeathing everything to his devoted butler, Hutchins. Not since the days of George III, when Sir Rowland Gossinger was accused of stealing the Queen's silver tea strainer, has such a scandal threatened the family honor. But worse is yet to come. For Hutchins soon turns up (lead under highly suspicious circumstances. And now his sweet young granddaughter Flora must deal with the loss as best she can. A new life in London and anew friendship with Sir Henry's former heir seem to ease the pain...until Gossinger Hall's history of treachery--topped by its ongoing rift with the Royal Family--casts its dark shadow over her. And Flora is caught in a murderously tangled web, where even a familiar face can hide the heart of a cold-blooded killer.
