RELEASE NOTES:

Posting off as a RABCK. Enjoy :)

Ohh - thanks Tiggsy - I read that you had used RABCK.com for the first time - I am hapilly surprised that I am the recipient. Especially as I had not joined with the NSSVS.

This was a most enjoyable book and left me wanting to read more. It really echoed the style of the famous Ladies Detective Agency books, and I think I may even like it more. Isabel, Jamie and Cat were all very likeable characters and I enjoyed the insite into their personal lives as much as the main story of the murder investigation, which ticked along quite slowly. I did skim the occasional descriptive paragraph to try and move the story on a little quicker but that is my only complaint.

I have the sequel in hardback waiting to be read and I am sure I won't wait long to read it.

I was on a bookring/ray for this book and I have offered to Molyneux who started it to offer the book to the remaining participants.

This arrived in the psot today. I think I won it in a bookswap, but I can't remember, so I went to have a look on the BCUK extra site, and it wasn't there, then I had a vague recollection about bookswaplive, so had a look there, and there it was. I'm happy to send it as a ring, if someone wants to send me a list of names.

Started this today. I used it on a sunday bookswaplive, and will be passing it to Teachie at the uncon.

I did not find this as engaging as the no 1 ladies detective agency series, and agree that the main story ticked along quite slowly. I stopped after 93 pages, as it was not gripping me.
Putting in the Uncon box for Teachie

Thanks suedo, received at Uncon.

This is going to Camis who won it in the S swap on bcuk_extra.

Thank you teachie. And thank you also for the generous donation to the British Heart Foundation - much appreciated.

Hmm, found this quite slow and it didn't really encourage me to read any more in the series. It was well-written but the story just didn't really seem to go anywhere and the end was a bit of a let down for me.

Will try and find a more appreciative reader soon!
