Więcej o książce
In the summer of 1950, eleven-year-old Flavia de Luce navigates her quaint village life filled with bicycle rides, sibling rivalries, and her secret chemistry lab. However, her ordinary summer takes a dark turn when a series of peculiar events unfold: a dead bird appears on her doorstep with a postage stamp on its beak, a late-night argument between her father and a mysterious visitor occurs, and she discovers a red-headed stranger dying in her cucumber patch. Intrigued rather than scared, Flavia finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation at Buckshaw. As she contemplates the stranger’s death, she suspects poisoning linked to a missing piece of Mrs. Mullet’s custard pie, and wonders if the family’s handyman, Dogger, or her father, Colonel de Luce, could be involved. Determined to clear her father’s name after he confesses to the crime, Flavia takes it upon herself to uncover the truth, even if it means withholding information from the local police. With her sharp wit and keen observational skills, she uncovers clues that connect the victim to her family's hidden past, making for an entertaining and cleverly crafted mystery filled with dark humor.
