A Step So Grave - Dandy Gilver (Hardback)

'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 *
Everything I adore * Red magazine *
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 *
McPherson's wit has been compared to that of PG Wodehouse or Nancy Mitford, and her finely researched and choreographed narratives to the work of Agatha Christie . . . an absolute delight . . . these are the perfect reads for a night by the fire. * Scotsman *
An absolute must for anyone who likes cosy historical mysteries. * Crime Review *
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 *
Superb! Dandy Gilver deserves a damehood for increasing the gaiety of the nation. * Frances Brody, author of the Kate Shackleton Mysteries *
Plenty of twists to keep you guessing. * The Bookbag *
A deliriously fun tale, flawlessly written. * Saga *
The 1930s setting is skilfully evoked and there are shades of Agatha Christie in the plotting. * Choice *
