A satisying read

Having read all of the Pennyfoot mysteries, I was happy to discover this addition to the series. The series, much like the "Mrs. Jefferies" books, is both a series of stand alone murder mysteries and an elongated novel, featuring characters whose lives and times provide a background for the mysteries. The growth of the characters and their relationships is almost as entertaining as the mysteries. This book is a fitting addition to an excellent series. Thank you Ms. Kingsbury.

Thanks to Kingsbury...

I enjoyed this book, as I have all of Kingsbury's works. The reviewers who condemn Ms. Kingsbury, are inaccurate at best. This book is not sloppily written, or poorly researched. I wouild suggest that before they pick up their poison pen to write a review, that they do a little "research" on their own, and print the facts. Bravo, to Ms. Kingsbury, for her delicious rebuttal!

In Defense

I don't usually comment on reviews of my books. I consider it everyone's right to form an opinion. Indeed, I am always most grateful that someone has taken the time to write a review... even if it's vitriolic, such as the one by "Bess from Lebanon, NH." I'm sorry she didn't enjoy the book, but then I can't please everyone. I must however, correct one glaring error in her statements. The lady states that I mentioned King George VI in my Edwardian novel. The page she was referring to is #61. At the bottom of the page it states quites clearly that it was George Fifth who was a barrister. Since it is plainly spelled out, I would suggest that Bess from Lebanon acquire spectacles.

No Clue at the Inn

I totally disagree with Disappointed from the East Coast. I found the book entirely enjoyable. I did not find any problem with the characters, I thought they were quite charming. And the story was very well executed. This is a very good book from a very good author. I wonder how many books the other person reviewing this has written where he/she seems to know everything about everybody but Ms Kingsbury has a large following of satisfied readers and one person who does not know what he/she is talking about, will not change Ms. Kingsbury's credibility. Go out and buy the book, don't critique it, read it and enjoy and be happy.

No Clue at the Inn

In response to A reader from the East Coast belowTHIS IS NOT AWFUL!!!! The characters are NOT shallow or full of cliches and they are NOT full of contradictions!!The marriage of Baxter and Cecily is very real. Reminds me of many marriages I know of today, so I do not think it is unreal. The historical detail is NOT sloppily researched. How would the reader from the East Coast know, did he/she live in 1912 England. How much did he/she research it to know it is sloppily researched? Probably none. And if the plot is transparent and contrived then I must be an idiot because Ms. Kingsbury fooled me. So I guess I am not as smart as the reader from the East Coast. Who I doubt is very smart at all, to say such awful words to someone she has never read before. I am a Kate Kingsbury fan, and I have read ALL the books something that I know reader from the East Coast hasn't and he/she has no right to judge anyone so harshly based on the reading of ONE book. He/she from the East Coast is way out of line and has no credibility in judging anything. This author has almost 20 mysteries in print so she must be doing something right. Or are the publishers who published her book idiots too? Disappoinment is one thing, awful is another. What is AWFUL is the reader from the East Coast's review.A Kate Kingsbury fan
