Customer Reviews

Lots of cozy English village atmosphere

And Miss Silver's knitting. Rosamond is a young woman in distress, and the handsome publisher arrives at just the right time to fall in love with her and save her and her sister. I like the descriptions of the homes and the people of the village. Miss Silver figures out everything in time to prevent another murder, and Frank Abbott is there to help.

Miss Silver investigates

Two young girls yearn to be free of their evil and cruel aunt's stranglehold on them, but they feel helpless...until suddenly a handsome, kind-hearted stranger shows up, and with Miss Silver, lends a helping hand.Liked this book because of the unexpected twist of plots and moving descriptions of characters and settings. Enjoyable read.
