About the Book

Meet Lord James Harrington and his delightful wife, Beth; residents of the tiny village of Cavendish, deep in the heart of West Sussex in England. They adore hosting seasonal events, running their country hotel, keeping the local folklore alive and listening to the latest murder mystery on the wireless. But mysteries don't always remain on the airwaves... It's a busy time on the Cavendish calendar; the Whitsun dance, Cavendish in Bloom and the week-long steam rally are all being celebrated and James is looking forward to an enjoyable couple of weeks. Having picked up a commendation from the Sussex police, he and Beth are given a curious task by DCI George Lane and his superior, Superintendent Higgins and that is to observe the behaviour of Theodore Livingstone, Member of Parliament, who has a second home in Cavendish and living well beyond his means. James and Beth discover that Theodore is not to be crossed and that his son, Maximillian, is the editor of a salacious gossip magazine. Both are boorish men who are driven by money and power. But when a body is discovered, with links to the Livingstone family, James cannot help but put his sleuthing skills to the test. Is a prominent MP really mixed up in drugs? Why are some of the villagers acting so strange? What hold does Theodore have over young British starlet, Dulcie Faye? Why doesn't DCI Lane trust his own people? Who is the mysterious man following James? Join James, Beth and the regulars as they celebrate Whitsun and embark on another thrilling adventure. Sweet Mystery Books says: When Lord James Harrington is asked to keep an eye on a powerful and malevolent member of Parliament who has just bought a home in Cavendish, crime descends on his beloved village. A gossip rag comes to town and compounds the problems. Fear and depression grip the town, and James and Beth are determined to track down the problem before the Whitsun celebration. As trusted members of the community, he and his wife are able to get a few citizens to admit what's bothering them. James, DCI Goeorge Lane and their old friend Bert team up and develop a plan to take down the villains and restore sanity to the village. But an unlikely heroine shows up with a plan to slam the prison door on the powerful man who has effectively covered his tracks. It's a complicated tale of secrets being used against good people. I love this British cozy series. Author note: I'm delighted to announce that Magna Publishing (part of Uverscroft) are gradually releasing this series in large print and audio.For details on this, please visit Ulverscroft.com.
About the Author: My dream of becoming a writer began when I was six or seven years old back in the mid 1960s. My head was always in an adventure book, especially those by Enid Blyton and Malcolm Saville; I've never really left the world of mystery and crime. But, work, marriage and folk music took over and, at the time, I didn't have the discipline to take writing seriously. After a particularly debilitating illness later in life, I took a writing course and began to have articles and short stories accepted by national magazines and newspapers. I also entered several writing competitions and was pleased to be placed or highly commended in several; this gave me the confidence to up my game and try my hand at writing a novel. With the help of a professional editing company, I finished my first full-length novel; a children's adventure story called The Quest for the Crystal Skulls. That novel came from my love of Native American prophecies and ancient myths and legends. It received some lovely reviews and I'm extremely proud of it. My love of cosy crime, however, took over. Having read hundreds of cosies over the years, I decided to create my own series and came up with the character of Lord James Harrington, Lord of the Manor and amateur sleuth. I write simply for the fun of it and launched the books on Kindle to see how Lord James would be received. The feedback I've had, both through reviews and personal emails, has been overwhelming. I'm thrilled that others enjoy Lord Harrington's adventures as much as I love writing them. My one remaining dream is that a TV producer will pick these mysteries up and decide to adapt them for the small screen. If you are that producer - contact me!
