Reviews
"Frances Brody knows how to hold the reader attention and make them continue reading into the small hours of the night."-- Bill Spence, York Press on Murder on a Summer's Day "I have enjoyed all five Kate Shackleton books but this is the best so far. Frances Brody has made it to the top rank of crime writers."-- Daily Mail (UK) "This is a well written, engaging story, easy to read and positively breathing the atmosphere of its setting and time. Don't be put off if you've not met Kate before. This is almost the perfect stand-alone, with enough references to enable you to fill in the background for yourself without in any way detracting from the plot and what 'hangover' characters there are fit naturally into the story...I'm impressed - and off to explore Kate's earlier cases. If they're as good as this, they'll be well worth the effort!" - Crime Review on Death of An Avid Reader, "Frances Brody knows how to hold the reader attention and make them continue reading into the small hours of the night."-- Bill Spence, York Press on Murder on a Summer's Day "I have enjoyed all five Kate Shackleton books but this is the best so far.

Synopsis
An intricate plot set in the 1920s English countryside and Frances Brody's "refreshingly complex heroine" ( Kirkus ) Kate Shackleton make Death of an Avid Reader an absorbing 6th installment in this mystery series. The Search for a Daughter Lady Coulton gave up the baby that would have ruined her marriage, born when Lord Coulton was abroad. Now that her husband is dying, she asks Kate to find Sophia. A Haunted Library It is forty years since the ghost of a dead librarian haunted the old library, yet the stories have begun again. Kate does not believe in ghosts but obligingly takes part in a ceremony to expel the restless spirit. Shockingly, there is a body in the basement, strangled, and covered in dusty volumes from a fallen bookcase. It is Dr. Potter, a mathematician. A Killer on the Loose Dr. Potter's body is taken away. The police find a sick man sheltering in the basement. He is an Italian, Umberto, an organ grinder and owner of a lively Capuchin monkey. Umberto becomes the prime suspect and will be charged with murder. Kate goes with Umberto to the infirmary. But he is too weak to be a suspect. And now Kate must set out to find the real culprit..., An intricate plot set in the 1920s English countryside and Frances Brody's refreshingly complex heroine ( Kirkus ) Kate Shackleton make Death of an Avid Reader an absorbing 6th installment in this mystery series.

- a***o (49)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéItem is as described in post, great quality, clean, not damaged, great purchase. I'd like to point out that it was also shipped promptly, arrived on time, but the local post office refused to send me any notification of it arriving. Therefore I only got it today, almost a month late. The seller is at no fault, they shipped it on time. So I am highly satisfied with my purchase and the seller, highly recommend them for anyone on Ebay. Great books at great prices, amazing experience.
