    Description

    Meet Flora Steele - bookshop owner, bicycle-rider, daydreamer, and amateur detective!

    Sussex, 1955: When bookshop owner Flora Steele goes for a walk along the pier she isn’t expecting to spot a young woman’s body in the stormy waters below. And she’s shocked to discover the victim is someone she knows....

    Convinced the death was not an accident, Flora persuades attractive local crime writer Jack Carrington to help her find out what really happened to poor Polly Dakers, a popular young woman with a complicated love life, who’d been at the heart of village life in Abbeymead.

    Jack is reluctant to get involved in another murder case at first, but even he can’t deny that Polly’s fall seems fishy. An argument at a party, a missed hairdresser’s appointment, and a red woolen bobble found on the wooden boards where Polly last stood provide a trail of clues....

    As they grow closer to solving the puzzling mystery, the unlikely pair stumbles upon several surprising secrets about those closest to Polly. A number of potential suspects begin to emerge. But who really disliked Polly enough to kill her? Was it Raymond, her jilted first love? Harry, her latest beau? Or Evelyn, Harry’s jealous estranged wife?

    As the investigation brings them closer to the truth, Flora is intent on unmasking the killer - but will her stealthy sleuthing lead her down a dangerous path?

    An utterly delightful cozy crime novel set in the fictional Sussex village of Abbeymead. Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin, and Joy Ellis!

    Very difficult to listen to

    I listened to the first book in this series and had some trouble with the narrator’s voice but the story was fairly interesting so I decided to get this second book. This was a mistake. The narrator’s was so irritating I could not get involved in the story and just wanted it to be over.

    I tried to return it but was not allowed to.

    Wonderfully engrossing and entertaining!

    The characters are likable and draw you to care about them and want the best for them. The mystery was engaging and the killer well hidden in plain sight. overall a great read or listen. I can't wait to open the next in the series!

    Great mystery story

    I thoroughly enjoy the narrator. The storyline is just as good the first book. I’ll keep reading the series until I’m finished.

    Better then 1st book

    This book was more enjoyable, maybe because the main people have already been introduced and taken on their own attitudes and characters.
    Looking forward to the next.

    Voice of narrator is ingratiating-

    It is a great story but the narrator detracts from how good the book could be.
    Hopefully next book will find another narrator.

    More fun and sleuthing with Flora and Jack!

    The mystery was well presented. Flora's enthusiasm for getting involved and Jack's reluctance play well together. There friends help create the feel of village life. I am enjoying this series very much.

    Enchanting!

    I so enjoyed the first book in this series, that I wanted to continue the adventures with Jack and Flora! The story is well written, and I really like the narration by Charlie Norfolk. I don't appreciate it when the narrators change mid series, as I've developed an association between voice and character, so was very pleased Charlie has remained the narrator -- Charlie IS Flora for me. I'll be continuing on with the series, and will look for other things by this author.

    Still really like

    I still really like this cozy British mystery series. It's interesting, but keeping track of the characters took some work. My one star off came because I thought Flora's behavior was rather selfish and put the hero in danger. I still liked her, but that one part bothered me.
