At Gossinger Hall, where the chill of centuries lingers, Sir Henry Gossinger has shocked his relatives by announcing a new will that leaves everything to his devoted butler, Hutchins. This scandalous revelation echoes the family's notorious past, reminiscent of Sir Rowland Gossinger's infamous theft of the queen's silver tea strainer. However, the situation worsens when Hutchins goes missing, only to be discovered dead in the twelfth-century privy, raising suspicions of foul play. His cryptic last words, "God save the Queen," add to the mystery. For Flora, Hutchins' granddaughter, his death is a profound loss. Raised by him at Gossinger Hall, she cherishes his dedication to the family, including Sir Henry's ambitious wife, and the stories he shared while polishing silver. As she navigates her grief, Flora finds solace in her new life in London and the support of Vivian Gossinger, Sir Henry's nephew. Yet, the dark history of Gossinger Hall, including ongoing tensions with the Royal Family over the tea strainer, looms over her. Flora soon becomes ensnared in a dangerous web of intrigue, where familiar faces may conceal deadly intentions.
