If a murder mystery can be delightful, this is it! The two young brothers who decide to play detective are resourceful and intelligent, and as a bonus, quite funny sometimes. Mrs. Bradley, Mitchell's odd old lady consultant to Scotland Yard, comes in at just the right point. Full of well-wrought characters and real human emotions, with just the right amount of pure fear to keep you on your toes.
