It is Christmas 1941, three weeks after the start of the Second World War, and Winston Churchill is about to visit Franklin D. Roosevelt at the White House to make plans for winning the war.

With the children away, and the death of Franklin’s mother, it looked as if it would be a gloomy Christmas. Then the maid discovered something quite remarkable in the walk-in refrigerator: a corpse. He has been killed with a ice pick in the back of the head. DiConccini, one of the top secret service agents, takes with him British Lieutenant Commander Leach on a secret mission to prove that it would be possible for someone to infiltrate the White House grounds through the storm drains, where they find a German gun wiped clean of fingerprints but with prints of the dead man on the ammunition. When further surveillance discovers grenades in the storm drain, they realize just how serious the case truly is.

Elliott Roosevelt wrote a series of mystery books with his mother as the chief protagonist, and The White House Pantry Murder is the only one available in audio to date. He was the son of Franklin and Eleanor, was a writer and rancher. He died in 1990.
