Reseña del libro "The French De Ception: A Moriston House Mystery (en Inglés)"
The French De Ception A Moriston House Murder Mystery By Jennifer A. GirardinCrime is merely a hedgerow away in the sleepy English village of Halfereton, pleasingly nestled among gently rolling hills, cozy old world cottages, and the latest unsolved mystery.As England's avid crime host, Lord Hugo Anstead continues the tradition of the English country house mystery, and cordially invites the local sleuths to Moriston House, where every mystery just happens to drop in for tea.Ambitious journalist and voice of the village Marjorie Branell-Markson can't dismiss the accidental death of local resident Camilla Alden, whose sudden demise rattles the quiet village. And when a mysterious French railway timetable is found in her garden, she is convinced that another crime is waiting in the wings. And she is right.Soon another wide-eyed local becomes the focus of a string of crimes, and is attacked before she realizes the connection between her recent travels in France--and Camilla Alden's death.Several bewildered suspects cloud the sunny investigation, including shady local gardener and part-time blackmailer Philip Hanson, who prunes the roses--and the pockets--of his unfortunate neighbors. Taking a break from his role as England's shyest chap, blundering George Durham makes a charming suspect. Debonair Gérard Dubois certainly has something significant to hide, and mousy Jeannette Belsoinne's murderous culinary skills leave nothing to chance.The village's Mystery Society eagerly travels to France to discover the truth, while a collection of ambitious sleuths hurry to solve the case, including young adventuress Elizabeth Branell-Markson, devious Olivia Crane, and dotty Jane Holden, whose cozy knitting adds a classic touch to the crime.Sophisticated Anne-Marie Maudrer soon engages the sleuths to unravel another unsolved mystery, as the ambitious detectives sift through a collection of deliciously false clues and hurry to solve the case...before there is another murder.Pack your bags for The French De Ception...and don't forget your passport!
