At nearby Milner Field mansion, overshadowed by its reputation for misfortune and untimely deaths, she expects to meet the letter writer, Ronnie Creswell.

Kate is enlisted to help investigate the murder. Kate moves into the tower rooms at Milner Field, as she tries to uncover resentments, industrial espionage, and old secrets in the close-knit village. Although she doesn't believe in curses, she wonders what sinister truth lies behind this latest in the litany of deaths connected to the infamous Milner Field. Then just when things couldn't get any worse, a young girl in the village goes missing, and Kate must use all her strength and skill to unravel the mystery around the mansion once and for all.

Review: When Kate receives a letter asking her to visit Saltaire to hear something from the past she doesn't expect a dead body. This case is set in Saltaire (now a world heritage site) and she is hired to find out who is undercutting the Salts contract with Montague Burton. More bodies turn up....and Rosie Sykes is in hospital ..... Will Kate and Mrs Sugden fall foul of the curse of Milner Field? Will they solve the case? Love these characters. This is not a cosy mystery but a good book nonetheless as it tells of a time gone by. I hope there are more books about Kate Shackleton. If you like these try the Maisie Dobbs series by Jacqueline Winspear. The writing style is easy to understand and it will keep you guessing but as time goes by you too will pick up the clues. Enjoy.

Review: The least interesting of all her novels. Could not really get into it. Sadly, almost boring.
