I absolutely adored this book. I have been looking for a new favorite author and heroine and I do believe I have found her in Elizabeth Duncan and Penny. I really liked her. I don't really understand her, a flawed but glorious heroine. The village in Wales with the quirky but necessary inhabitants are spot on and the mystery although I guessed who it just "had" to be flumoxed me as to the how and why. Perhaps a new friendship with a nice man and a new friend to replace her unlikely but dear departed friend is a little disengenuous, but hey we're in a small village in Wales. Try it, the second is already on my list as is the Christmas one that is not to be released till October. If you like Dorothy Cannell, Carolyn Hart, of course Dame Agatha, Marion Babson, Dorothy Sayers run and get this one!
