Acerca de este libro electrónico

William Helder, the head of a 300 year old family firm, lives in London in spacious and comfortable apartment above his office, with a magnificent view of the busy River Thames flowing below his windows. His well-off and well-ordered life brings him comfort and satisfaction, while part of his active leisure time provides exercise and variety, and opportunities to indulge in a hobby of his, as he follows clues in his search for a certain silver flagon, an heirloom of his family. A collection of twelve silver flagons had been presented to an ancestor, two centuries ago, by King William and Queen Mary—but through the years some of them had gone missing. All—except one—had by now been recovered. William’s search for the missing flagon leads him along many interesting paths, during which he meets a girl who joins him in the chase, and as they progress together he discovers that the silver flagon is not the only prize he is striving for.

Elizabeth wrote her first book 'My Dear Aunt Flora' during the Second World War in 1946, thereafter producing another 52 light-hearted, humorous and romantic books which won her a faithful readership in England and America. She moved to Portugal in 1960 and subsequently set many of her books in that country. She died in 1989, aged eighty-five.
