| Summary Note |
January 1950. Lady Anne Coke, daughter of the 5th Earl of Leicester, is called home after a sudden death in the family. She returns to Holkham Hall to discover a mystery: her beloved grandfather has been found dead at the bottom of a flight of stairs with a valuable piece of jewellery in his pocket. No one can find a cause of death, and Anne's suspicions are aroused; she was close to her grandfather and she is determined to discover the truth. During World War II, Holkham Hall was an army base with large sections out of bounds, and eleven-year-old Anne was in the care of a new governess, whom she hated and believed to be deceitful. Anne used the secret passageways and the cellars to move around unnoticed. And something she saw then could unlock the mystery of her grandfather's death now... |
