"Reminiscent of Dorothy L. Sayers and Agatha Christie with a
thoroughly likeable protagonist and a plot that held me to the
end." --Mignon F. Ballard, author of the Miss Dimple Kilpatrick
Mystery Series
" "Dying in the Wool"] introduces a refreshingly complex heroine
and adds a fine feeling for the postwar period." --"Kirkus
Reviews"
Take one quiet Yorkshire village
Bridgestead is a peaceful spot: a babbling brook, rolling hills
and a working mill at its heart. Pretty and remote, nothing
exceptional happens...
Add a measure of mystery
Until the day that Master of the Mill Joshua Braithwaite goes
missing in dramatic circumstances, never to be heard of again.
A sprinkling of scandal
Now Joshua's daughter is getting married and wants one last
attempt at finding her father. Has he run off with his mistress, or
was he murdered for his mounting coffers?
And Kate Shackleton--amateur sleuth extraordinaire
Kate Shackleton has always loved solving puzzles. So who better
to get to the bottom of Joshua's mysterious disappearance in this
charming traditional mystery by Frances Brody? But as Kate taps
into the lives of the Bridgestead dwellers, she opens cracks that
some would "kill" to keep closed...
