Description
Damsel in Distress by Carola Dunn is a captivating mystery set against the backdrop of 1920s England. When Miss Gloria Arbuckle, daughter of a wealthy American, is abducted, her chum Daisy enlists the help of Honourable Phillip Petrie to track down the kidnappers. As they close in on the abductors' rural hideaway, Daisy begins to suspect that Gloria may not be the only damsel in distress. With strict instructions to avoid contacting Scotland Yard, Daisy must use her wits and resourcefulness to unravel the mystery before it's too late. This engaging period piece is a cut above the average British cosy, with cunning plot twists and witty dialogue that evoke the life and times of 1920s England.
