An Edwardian England confection

Cecily Sinclair, a recent widow and the proprietress of the the fashionable Pennyfoot Hotel in Badgers End finds her small seaside village is the location for numerous unexplained deaths which turn out to be murders. With the help of the faithful Baxter she determines to find out who is on a rampage in her small village. The year is 1906, and Ms. Kingsbury does a good job of painting life on a seacoast village at the turn of the century. The book moves along quickly, and the characters are a delight. All the makings of a wonderful cozy series. I am looking forward to reading more about Cecily and her friends.

The first book of a new series set in england in 1906.

Kate Kingsbury's first entry is a winner. The characters are endearing, the locale is a luxury resort on the beach, and the mystery is engrossing. I like this series because it allows the reader to peek into the world of the upper class in Edwardian England. Patty Habersberge
