Description

Ngaio Marsh returns to her New Zealand origins to transplant the traditional country-house murder mystery to an upland sheep place on South Area -- and creates among her many interesting and unique books. One summer night in 1942 Flossie Rubrick, MP, one of the very powerful ladies in New Zealand, would go to her partneris wool drop to rehearse a loyal talk -- and vanishes. She appears at an auction -- loaded inside among her personal bales of wool and very, very dead three months later!
