Scotland, 1924: When Lady Poppy Proudfoot travels to the Highlands for a midsummer party, the last thing she and her fellow guests expect is for a body to wash up beside the loch.
Despite protests that it could have been an accident, Poppy is convinced it’s murder and decides to dust off her law degree and hunt for clues. But when the police arrive, the grumpy Inspector MacKenzie dismisses her evidence, insisting a crime scene is no place for a Lady. The nerve!


Oh what a joy to know that this fabulous author has yet another series out! Lady Poppy takes up the baton for lady detectives in this new series by Lydia Travers. As always this is a terrific murder mystery set in the glamorous world of the landed gentry in beautiful Scotland. As a novice detective Poppy has to use her wits, charm and some cunning to arrive at the truth and she manages to do so despite the handsome detective James McKenzie accusing her of interfering. I guarantee if you love cozy historical crime novels, this is a keeper. Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read Death at the Loch.
