[Mary · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's always a pleasant way to spend an afternoon with Constable Rhea and the people in his village. This book ends with a to be continued flavor--unlike most of the others. So I will get to #28 sooner rather than later to see what happens to our constable's career and that of his former supervisor Blaketon. Changes in store!

Another Kindle Unlimited purchase. These books may make that monthly fee worthwhile.

Great read

I am binging on these books ,as you can tell. It is a nice quiet read. Put the stress away and go to the English Highlands. Back to the 60's, when life was still fairly sane.
