When Rosaleen Cloade comes to sleepy Warmsley Vale to collect on her late spouse’s sizable inheritance, the Cloade family — who all rely in various ways on the funds from their dear departed Uncle Gordon — have other plans for the money.
The fact that I remembered the answer to this mystery from the TV shows might have ruined it a little for me. Because it's definitely convoluted enough to make a good story.
And it is tiring to hear yet another member of the family whining about money and it does make me wish they weren't all so stupid.
And as for the heroine (if you can call her that), she has extremely bad taste in men.
