The Seven Dials Mystery

Lazy Gerry Wade is always last to rise, but something is deadly wrong when eight alarm clocks fail to rouse him. The fatal dose of chloral, a sleeping aid, is suspicious to Lady Eileen Bundle Brent, one of London's bright young things and mistress of Chimneys, the estate where Wade expired. A second corpse confirms the crime, and with Superintendent Battle's blessing the gutsy amateur sleuth enters an underworld of secret clubs and subterfuge. Emilia Fox's superb performance perfectly captures Bundle Brent and her fashionable entourage.
