4.0

A World War II plane is unearthed with a body inside, but the dead man is far more recent than the plane and related to the aristocracy who owns the land where the plane is discovered.  Despite a rather involved mystery, the novel follows way too many of the "recipes" used in previous novels.  Still an engaging read. 3.5/5
