- Synopsis
- The village of Taviscombe is sent reeling when the popular Sidney Middleton dies in a tragic accident. However, it soon becomes apparent that his death was a most deliberate act. How could someone so likable have enemies--especially one driven to kill? Mrs. Sheila Malory is dead-set on finding out. By the end of the novel, she solves the mystery and learns much about people in the process. For instance, she discovers that Sidney is really a horrible person who has destroyed many people's lives. Sheila, because of this discovery begins looking at people suspiciously. The novel ends with a twist. The story is enriched by British manners and humor. According to Booklist, this novel is: "Finely textured... Sink comfortably with the heroine into a burnished old pub or a cup of tea... Full of elegant shadings of place and character and appealing local color... Anglophiles will delight in the authentically British Mrs. Malory, and mystery fans will enjoy Holt's stylish writing, dry wit, and clever plot."
