The Mitford murders / Jessica Fellowes.
It's 1920, and eighteen-year-old Loouisa Cannon dreams of escaping her life of poverty in London. Her salvation is a position within the eccentric, aristocratic, and ultimately notorious Mitford household in the Oxfordshire countryside. There Louisa becomes nursery maid, chaperone, and confidante to the eldest sister, Nancy, who is only sixteen but will grow up to be a successful novelist. An acerbic, bright young woman already in love with stories, Nancy is eager to have a friend near her own age in a house full of younger siblings, and desperate for intrigue and adventure. When a nurse - Florence Nightingale Shore, goddaughter of her famous namesake - is killed on a train in broad daylight, Louisa and Nancy find themselves entangled in the crimes of a murderer who will do anything to remain a mystery...--inside cover
