Description
Lady Eleanor Swift is delighted to be in charge of the prize-giving at her village summer fair. However, the traditional homemade raft race takes a tragic turn when the local undertaker, Solemn Jon, turns up dead amongst the ducks. Despite initial thoughts of an accident, a spiteful obituary printed in the local paper suggests otherwise. As Lady Swift investigates further, she discovers that another local has died in a riding accident, with the police refusing to believe foul play. A second vindictive death notice convinces her that something is amiss. With her partner in crime, Gladstone the bulldog, by her side, Lady Swift starts digging for clues. A dusty old photograph ultimately reveals the true culprit behind both crimes, and another obituary appears - this time, Lady Swift's own. Can she unravel the mystery before it's too late?
