This is my second of the Yorkshire Dales Mystery series, and I have ordered the third one because Millie is a main character.I feel sure I will order the other two as well.The detail in these books is wonderful.  The history, the descriptions, the characters, the land itself.. come to life in Susan's books. That makes them great to read.Some have criticized the wealth of background, history and character description but for me, that makes these books stand apart.  There are a million 'cozy mysteries', good for an hour's read; these books are long and I find myself in the Dales (where I have never been).  The details of the lives of the people in the book make me feel I have been invited for tea.I have never been in North England and it sounds lovely.  As an American, these books have added a wealth of detail to my imaginings about how people lived in the days of mining, and how they live now.Thank you, Susan Parry for making these books available for Kindle.  I will re-read them.
