Summary
A few moments of domesticity.
14 Mar 2010
Bookmarked by Elizabeth Perry (watersword)
Notes
"Have you sussed yet what they've stolen this time?"
Honoria considered the clues – smudged palm prints on doors, dusty tracks through the library, blotter paper in the wastebasket. "Yes, my dear," she replied. "You aren't the only detective in the family."I love Honoria, and Peter is SUCH an awesome, thoughtful father, and the kids are a delight and a half.

Notes
Rather excellent character illumination in a rather dark setting, threaded through The War Games, with a plot of its own.

Summary
"I must have a streak of my father in me. He was one of the old school -- you either faced a fence of your own accord or were walloped over and non nonsense. It worked -- after a fashion. One learnt to pretend one wasn't a coward, and take out the change in bad dreams."
"You certainly don't show any signs of it."
"One of these days you'll find me out, I expect."

Notes
The Wimsey family at the end of the Great War, captured through letters and the diary of the inimitable Dowager Duchess of Denver. All the characterisations are absolutely spot-on, and it's both funny and moving.
