Description
When Indian Princess Alexandrina is left penniless by the sudden death of her father, Queen Victoria grants her a grace-and-favor home in Hampton Court Palace. The princess is soon befriended by three eccentric widows who invite her to a picnic with all the palace's inhabitants, for which her lady's maid Pooki bakes a pigeon pie. But when General-Major Bagshot dies after eating said pie, Pooki becomes the prime suspect in a murder investigation.
