Summary

A cosy Dandy Gilver mystery set in 1930s Scotland. For fans of PG Wodehouse, Dorothy L Sayers and Agatha Christie.

A delightfully uplifting mystery with a distinctly P.G. Wodehouse-ian feel. Navigating ancient castles, and family feuds, Dandy Gilver must also contend with a ribald staging of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. I loved the sense of fun, the wonderful use of language … satisfying on many levels. Vaseem Khan, author of the Unexpected Inheritance of Inspector Chopra

Critics Review

‘The perfect read for those who enjoy the bygoneworld charm of Nancy Mitford, Evelyn Waugh and Agatha Christie.’ - The Lady on DANDY GILVER AND A MOST MISLEADING HABIT

Catriona McPherson is a writer as talented as she is versatile. Dandy Gilver tackles a Golden Age era puzzle with her usual aplomb when the Scottish play offers a Shakespearean twist to a mystery with plenty of classic ingredients. - Martin Edwards
