"Warm up the apple crisp and cozy up to a detective mystery that has been 75 years in the making." –BestThrillers.com

"She knows exactly how to tell a story with flair, humor and a whole lot of heart." –Phil Mellor, poet/author of The Dark Places of Lost Things

"A small-town murder mystery done up in style with fascinating characters and a twisty plot." –A.J. McCarthy, award-winning mystery author

"A rich, charming whodunnit with delightful characters." –Leigh Turner, British Diplomat-turned-spy/thriller novelist

"I was impressed at how the author skillfully includes issues of equality and discrimination as an ordinary yet unwelcome occurrence of the time and place, and includes a cast of effortlessly diverse characters. A lovely book, ticking all the boxes expected from the cosy genre." –Jinny Alexander, author of A Diet of Death and Dear Isabel

"This bold debut is a satisfyingly cosy crime and yet written with elegance and wit that elevates it above many others...The story flows at a fast pace and the high death toll does not disappoint the more gore-hungry reader, but as with the traditional golden age style, things don’t become too grisly." –Mairi Chong, author of The Dr Cathy Moreland Mystery Series
