1978. An open house event at the Regency Fairlynch Manor results in an unwelcome visitor, and paintings stolen from the locked house which also results in a death. Pollard and Toye investigate
An entertaining mystery

An interesting variation on the open-to-tourists-country-house-murder.

My last book about Pollard and Toy. These police procedurals have been good fun. I especially liked the ending of this one. Lemarchand surprised me this time.
I got these from a friend a year or so ago. I had four entertaining tales by an author I knew nothing about. Apparently Lemarchand took up writing when she was 57 and continued to write until she died at 82. I guess there is hope for those of us still growing up.
If you like cosy mysteries with police and little blood, I highly recommend this series.
