Description
Dry wit and nautical lore run through this mystery - Lady P is a scientist, inventor and engineer and above all she's a fun-loving and youthful grandmother. But she doesn't see the funny side when the dead body of a youngish woman turns up on board her daughter's sailing boat. Even Inspector Plummer cannot prevent Lady P's natural inquisitiveness landing her in deep water and in hospital. But gradually clues surface with very unpleasant ramifications for all concerned.

Bleah. Mildly interesting detective and assistants, though I actually like the police detective better than her most of the time. Vigilante action, evading the law and the rules in every possible direction, death by total accident, politics and corrupt politicians...The writing is good, I felt all
