Summary: This is a mystery??
Comment: I really, really did not like this book. Yes, it's very light-hearted and skips along at a fair pace, but the mystery itself takes up only about half the book! The other half is some nonsensical tripe about several of the local ladies being kidnapped by a couple of rouges WHO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MYSTERY AT HAND. What?!? Why am I reading about them?? What on God's green earth does this have to do with the main story? The mystery itself is interesting enough conceptually, but it's ignored for so much of the book that it remains completely underdeveloped. The denouement itself takes about two pages; that's how simple it was, almost as though it were an afterthought.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A good read
Comment: As usual, a nice "lite" read for a mystery but just the thing to have in one's purse or pocket to fill in time on a train, bus or where you have some moments free. If you are an Anglophile, then this will be just your cup of tea!

Summary: Excellent Series
Comment: For those who have enjoyed the excellent Pennyfoot Hotel series by Ms. Kingsbury, this series will prove delightful, moving from the Victorian era to the English countryside during World War II in a manor house setting.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Love this series
Comment: I enjoy these books very much.As I grew up in London during the war I find it brings back some good memories of how people were then.Kate Kingsbury has really caught the "flavour" of those times.
I can't wait to read her next one in this series.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Such an enjoyable escape
Comment: I have read all of Kate Kingsbury's WW2 series and find them so relaxing and full of the most wonderful escapist writing. This last one maintained the high standard and I look forward to the next
