Description
When Lyle Revel and Hermione Bradbury are not carrying out their duties as caretakers of Milsham Castle, they are usually involved in all sorts of revelry and mayhem.
Their friend Oliver Seymour is making a documentary about the notorious Captain Dietrich. After discovering the wanted Nazi fugitive is still alive, Oliver is involved in a mysterious car crash before he can expose him.
Lyle’s and Hermione’s suspicions are aroused further when a document goes missing from Arlington, one of England’s finest stately homes, and a guest is shot dead.
As the body count rises and the murder trial of the decade begins at the Central Criminal Court in London, Lyle and Hermione are surrounded by danger and intrigue at every turn.
The final gathering of the suspects sees the past and present colliding with devastating consequences…

This novel involves castles, a Nazi who is found alive and two caretakers of the castle who must help solve the mystery.
When a documentarian comes to film the story of Captain Dietrich, it is discovered that this Nazi fugitive is still alive. Soon a document is stolen, a guest is murdered and what results in an important trial is revealed.
I enjoyed the ambiance of this novel and the exploration of the fugitive. The book kept me engaged and I recommend it to other readers.
