But her father who she suspects was in the secret service is dead, and when her mother has a stroke and is taken into care, Elvira suddenly finds herself home alone. In order to cope, Elvira who knows a lot about biscuits and supermarkets, but not much about life develops Seven Rules for interacting with others. Not even her rules can help her, however, when shes faced with solving a mystery she didnt know existed . . .
