Ilustration During Books The Dead in Their Vaulted Arches (Flavia de Luce #6)

On a spring morning in 1951, eleven-year-old chemist and aspiring detective Flavia de Luce gathers with her family at the railway station, awaiting the return of her long-lost mother, Harriet. Yet upon the train’s arrival in the English village of Bishop’s Lacey, Flavia is approached by a tall stranger who whispers a cryptic message into her ear. Moments later, he is dead, mysteriously pushed under the train by someone in the crowd. Who was this man, what did his words mean, and why were they intended for Flavia? Back home at Buckshaw, the de Luces’ crumbling estate, Flavia puts her sleuthing skills to the test. Following a trail of clues sparked by the discovery of a reel of film stashed away in the attic, she unravels the deepest secrets of the de Luce clan, involving none other than Winston Churchill himself. Surrounded by family, friends, and a famous pathologist from the Home Office—and making spectacular use of Harriet’s beloved Gipsy Moth plane, Blithe Spirit—Flavia will do anything, even take to the skies, to land a killer.

Oh, Flavia. Such intelligence and determination in a young girl make you dangerous - not to mention your fascination with poisons and chemistry. I probably wouldn't like you so much if it wasn't for your huge sense of fun and adventure, combined with how lost and alone you seem in your stiff-upper-lip world living in the decaying family home in your little English village. There is nobody quite like you. Probably a good thing, actually. Still, I can't wait until I get to spend some more time

I have to admit that I read #1 and #2 in the series and then took a giant leap to this one #6, because I won a preview copy of #7 coming out in 2015, which I'll soon need to review. So I know I committed the ultimate faux pas, and maybe someday I'll go back to the others, but in the meantime I'm so glad to have read this. No regrets. Flavia and her family are top of their game here. Her mother's body comes home for burial finally, and Flavia's curiosity about her and the family history leads her

I love Flavia. I've read the first two and now this out of order. I will be catching up, but this is one of those serial reads where I can say nothing that won't give something away in 3 books from now, so just give in and read if you are into light mysteries. . .the thrill here is Ms. Flavia, who is 12 at this point in the romp, going on a very well put together 72. I wonder if she's ever met Ms. Pollifax. I'm sure she knows Poirot and Mr. Holmes.

While I think this must be the weakest of the series (even moreso than the christmas one) - I hesitate to give it a 1 as typically a 1 means I really despise a book.This book was weak, in plot and characterization and resolution. So weak, in fact, that I cannot muster up enough aggravation to give the book the 1 that the overall weakness deserves.Characters added, with little to no characterization and that did nothing to advance the plot; established characters that had little or nothing to do

So far this series has had a rollercoaster effect on me - I loved books 1, 3, and 5, and was underwhelmed by 2, 4, and this one, number 6. I didn't buy into any of this book. I know grief does strange things to people, and Flavia's still a child, but too much seemed totally out of character.Things that didn't sit well:1 - Flavia forgot about the dead guy on the train platform.2 - Rare drugs were obtained effortlessly.3 - The chemistry was straight up mad science. Reanimation? Really?4 - As soon

I shy away from genre fiction, spurn series, and tire quickly of child narrators and yet I find the Flavia de Luce novels positively delightful. Bradleys quaintly authentic mysteries are set at Buckshaw, a crumbling country manor house in 1950s England, where the titular eleven-year-old heroine performs madcap chemistry experiments and solves small-town murders. Flavia may be spiky and snotty especially to her two older sisters, the one boy-crazy (Feely, or Ophelia) and the other book-obsessed
