Helpful Score: 1

In this cozy British mystery the actual murder does not occur in the first 100 pages. One suspects who the victim will be, and one sees a number of people who might wish to commit murder. The charm of fifty-something Mrs Mallory, her perceptiveness and her insight into human nature, made the book enjoyable, even though I guessed the murderer before the final chapter. For me,Hazel Holt's mysteries are an antidote to a too harried life. They are gentle and a little slow, a relaxing read.
