Christopher's brother Albert is finally getting married. It is tradition that the bride and groom trade houses the night before the wedding. Albert, Christopher and Lord Edgington go to the bride's family home. Albert finds that his fiance's family are completely horrible, but he still wants to marry Cassandra. When Cassandra's mother is murdered in the middle of the night it is a good thing that Christopher and his grandfather are there and on the case as it looks like Albert may be the murderer! Will they be able to solve the case before the wedding?
Oh my! Suspects are coming out of the woodwork in this one. Could one of Cassandra's brothers have killed their mother? She was a completely awful woman to all of her family. So throughout the story I was wondering which one finally cracked enough to kill her. I was a little disappointed in Christopher this go-round because he seemed to not have as many insights as he has in the past. But for this case I think he can be forgiven. I too was confused and led astray by so many suspects. By the time I got to the end of the book I never would have guessed who-done-it! Never fear though, Lord Edgington does not seem to be at a loss as to what is going on and manages to wrap the case up quite tidily. Christopher and his grandfather are the perfect detective duo and I look forward to more adventures with them!
