Veronica Black is the pseudonym of Maureen Peters (1935-2008). The title is the words printed on a slip of paper in an old cookery book which historical researcher Cordelia James traces to a child in a pink dress who makes brief appearances in the vicinity of The Cedars where she has rented a room. There are other clues - the records of a mid 19th century case of a vanished governess and child. Parallels emerge as the house cleaner and her daughter go missing, as an old tale of lust and murder is replayed in a house where the restless ghost of Polly Winter seeks justice. C3C. Fine/Near Fine.
