The countdown has begun. Henry Devereaux Twyst, 18th Duke of Chellingford, is getting married in Wales. He is deeply in love with his fiancée but is overwhelmed by the excessive wedding details. There are far too many traditions involved—the Welsh cakes, the decorating, the gwadhoddwr to announce their nuptials, not to mention the Morris dancers who must proceed the wedding party through the streets of Anwen-on-Wye. Except Aubrey Morris, the keeper of the troupe's kit of exquisite 16th-century silver bells, engraved sticks, and massive baton, is missing. The ladies of the WISE (Wales, Ireland, Scotland, England) Enquiries Agency are on the case to find Aubrey.
VERDICT This charming sequel to The Case of the Dotty Dowager will delight M.C. Beaton and Jeanne M. Dams readers as the lively ladies use their individual talents to track down their quarry.
