The Icarus Case

About The Icarus Case

While Daisy and Darren roamed the countryside around Bottomleigh House in their faithful little car, they chanced upon a small airfield called Gremian Hill, which caught their fancy at once. They were told by members of the local parachuting club that a blind person or a paraplegic too could skydive, and they became regulars to find out more. But soon tragedy struck, a parachute failed to open and one of their new friends fell to her death under suspicious circumstances. What's more, the chutes were kept under lock and key in a special shed, so sabotage seemed impossible. Time for our blind sleuth to tackle this locked-room mystery, and when another member of the Icarus Skydiving Club fell to her death and the press started talking about a serial killer, it became even more urgent to uncover the truth. "In the 1990s Daisy Hayes has become the resident sleuth of the Manor Hotel, a shrewd old lady reminiscent of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple. All kinds of villainy come her way and nothing escapes her attention! Sit back and enjoy." - The Weekly Banner
