Thoroughly enjoyed this story; took me away from day to day, while I entered into the world of make-believe. Love Agatha and her creator. She keeps me amused and waiting for her next novel. Highly recommend any book by M.C. Beaton.

This was my first M.C. Beaton book and while I enjoyed some parts (some of the humor), other parts were irksome to me as the author rambled on about things that had no connection to the storyline and I found myself wondering where we were going with all of this. In addition, in the middle of the book, the author talks about the bad winter weather (snow and ice) in the Village and then the very next section (24-hour timeline in the story) talks about the sun shining and the grass being green and it being hot. It seems as though Spring has sprung...literally...with the turn of a page. More like the author had a few too many Gin and Tonics (alcohol is prevalent throughout story) while writing the book and lost her way for a while, then forgot the time of year she left off! I suppose if light crime books are your thing, you'll probably enjoy this read, but for me, I was bored and irritated with the inconsistencies and useless babbling.
