Sheer Folly (Daisy Dalrymple Series, Book #18) by Carola Dunn
In March of 1926, Daisy Dalrymple Fletcher and her friend and collaborator, Lucy, head off to spend a few days at a stately home reputed to have the best grotto in the country. They are working on a book of follies (the architectural kind, that is), and plan to use the weekend to research and photograph.
Once at the estate, Daisy and Lucy find themselves faced with a curious assortment of people, including the abominable, tactless Lord Rydal, who is rumored to be having an affair with one of the guests while at the same time in ardent and artless pursuit of the hand in marriage of another. As tensions between the guests steadily rise, with long-held secrets and resentments threatening the thin remaining layer of civility, even the ever-observant Daisy couldn't predict the deadly events to come.
