This is the first book in the Lord Edgington Investigates series. Christopher goes to his ancestral home and his grandfather, Lord Edgington, assigns him the job of planning a spring ball. Lord Edgington has been a recluse for 10 years since his wife passed away. He is now ready to re-enter society. To celebrate he serves a champagne that he has been saving for years. His daughter drinks the champagne before the toast is over and dies before their eyes. Now Lord Edgington calls on Christopher to help him solve who murdered his daughter.
The beginning of the series we are introduced to Lord Edgington and his grandson Christopher. Christopher makes a good sounding board for his grandfather while also coming up with some wild ideas of his own. I enjoyed the fun wit displayed by Christopher and Lord Edgington along with the mystery of who the killer was. I was kept guessing to the very end and was definitely surprised in who the murderer was. A fun yet cozy mystery with a bit of sobriety thrown in as murder is never fun. I'm definitely a fan and am going to enjoy this series.
