Review: I have to admit that I was unsure whether I would like this new mystery series of books but made my mind up to try the first one. I, for some reason, thought it might be harrowing as it was a prison series. I have read all the Kate Shackelton books and enjoyed them so why did I doubt this new series. I really enjoyed this book and learned a lot. In fact I found it difficult to put it down. I should be working at the moment but before I do I shall order book 2. I am so pleased to find another set of books to read.

Review: I've read lots of Frances Brody's books and have enjoyed them all. This was a bit different being about a prison governor but still enjoyable.

    Description: Frances always said she'd be murdered. She was right. In 1965, seventeen-year-old Frances Adams was told by a fortune teller that one day she'd be murdered. Frances spent the next sixty years trying to prevent the crime that would be her eventual demise. Of course, no one took her seriously - until she was dead. For Frances, being the village busybody was a form of insurance. She'd spent a lifetime compiling dirt on every person she met, just in case they might turn out to be her killer. In the heart of her sprawling country estate lies an eccentric library of detective work, where the right person could step in and use her findings to solve her murder. When her great-niece Annie arrives from London and discovers that Frances' worst fear has come true, Annie is thrust into her great-aunt's last act of revenge against her sceptical friends and family. Frances' will stipulates that the person who solves her murder will inherit her millions. Can Annie unravel the mystery and find justice for Frances, or will digging up the past lead her into the path of the killer?.
