Book description
With the family finances in a parlous state, Colonel de Luce has, with
deep misgivings, rented Buckshaw to a film company for a location
shooting. Naturally enough, director, crew and stars do nothing to
endear themselves to the household - especially the servants - until,
when a heavy snowfall cuts off Bishop's Lacey from the rest of the
world, the actors are talked into staging a benefit performance in the
parish hall. But old jealousies surface, and the leading lady is
murdered. Flavia, who has been enlisted to help out behind the scenes,
finds herself up to her knees in snow - and murder! Alan Bradley is a
former professor at the University of Saskatchewan, where he lectured on
screen writing. He is the author of a memoir, THE SHOEBOX BIBLE.
