A brilliantly written book by a "real" author. I love Novellas, as they are wonderful when you don't want to read a full-length novel, but without sacrificing the quality of course, and this is no exception - although I agree that with such stories, sometimes you read them too quickly and are left wanting more! I love the style of writing, it is a style all of her own, quite quirky and very engaging! It is very skillfully woven together and action-packed from the beginning to the end.I've always loved British Mysteries, and this epitomizes all the best qualities of them. I love the subtle humor, and the main character Emily is engaging and interesting, as are the supporting characters. I love surprise endings in whodunnit mysteries, and this one over-delivers on that!! I haven't actually read any of the others in the series but I can see I'm going to have to read them all! Helen Smith is going to be one of my favorite authors I think..
