The sweetness at the bottom of the pie : a Flavia de Luce mystery

The sweetness at the bottom of the pie : a Flavia de Luce mystery

For nearly eleven-year-old Flavia de Luce, the discovery of a dead snipe on the doorstep of Buckshaw was a marvellous mystery - especially since this particular snipe had a rather rare stamp neatly impaled on its beak. Soon Flavia discovers something even more shocking in the cucumber patch and it's clear that the snipe was a bird of very ill omen indeed. As the police descend on Buckshaw, Flavia decides it is up to her to piece together the clues and solve the puzzle. Who was the man she heard her father arguing with? What was the snipe doing in England at all? Who or what is the Ulster Avenger?.
