Sweetness at the bottom of the pie by Alan Bradley

BONUS: This edition contains a The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie discussion guide and an excerpt from Alan Bradley's The Weed That Strings the Hangman's Bag.

 

It is the summer of 1950Ðand at the once-grand mansion of Buckshaw, young Flavia de Luce, an aspiring chemist with a passion for poison, is intrigued by a series of inexplicable events: A dead bird is found on the doorstep, a postage stamp bizarrely pinned to its beak. Then, hours later, Flavia finds a man lying in the cucumber patch and watches him as he takes his dying breath.

 

For Flavia, who is both appalled and delighted, life begins in earnest when murder comes to Buckshaw. ÒI wish I could say I was afraid, but I wasnÕt. Quite the contrary. This was by far the most interesting thing that had ever happened to me in my entire life.Ó
