Susan wrote: "Who else is reading this one?"I read it and enjoyed it very much. Mrs. Hunter was great, and Freddy added a lot of humor this time, sometimes in past I thought he was annoying, pestering Angela for a story. Corky was a stinker!

I do like the characters, but there is a tad too much roma..."Me, too, I want to see Freddy on his own - I wonder if he’ll have a different debutante chasing him in every book? He has joked about having to cover social events. I wonder if Corky will be his regular Nemesis?

Angela has now returned from Italy and on a reluctant visit to her painfully respectable brother and his wife, Angela Marchmont finds herself once again caught up in murder when a local farmer is shot dead, apparently at the hands of his sworn enemy. But the case is not as simple as it seems, for other motives and suspects soon come to light. With reporters hot on the scent and her friend, Inspector Jameson, battling a conflict of interest, Angela must use all her ingenuity to unravel the case and bring the murderer to justice - or more than one person will suffer the consequences. As well as Jameson, this novel also features Freddie Pilkinton-Soames,who is, as always, searching for a good story.
