Sinopsis

A body in a hospital isnâÇÖt so unusual. Unless theyâÇÖve been murdered!1916, London: Keen to support the war effort, bookshop manager and sometime amateur sleutháHannah Merrilláhas taken a volunteer role in the library of the nearby military hospital.But arriving at the hospital one cold winterâÇÖs morning, she is horrified to find the body of a dead soldier in the library.WhatâÇÖs more, a beautiful young nurse confides in Hannah that she thinks sheâÇÖs being followed, and then she abruptly disappears.Hannah canâÇÖt shake the suspicion that the two cases are connected, but she canâÇÖt solve the case alone. SheâÇÖll once again need to call upon her delightful, demanding, only-occasionally devious aunt, Violet.The two women know they must find the missing nurse before itâÇÖs too late... but they donâÇÖt realise theyâÇÖre now both in the killerâÇÖs sights.A totally gripping, unputdownable, WW1-set, cozy mystery, perfect for fans of Helena Dixon, Verity Bright, and Agatha Christie.Readers love the Miss Merrill and Aunt Violet series:âÇÖWonderful!!áI had high hopes for this novel and it did not disappoint.áOnce I began I could hardly put it down.áI am excited to read Ms. DavisonâÇÖs next installment.âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈâÇÖI couldnâÇÖt put this book down, I just wanted to keep reading.

CanâÇÖt wait for the next book.âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈâÇÖWhat a fabulous setting for a murder Aunt VioletâÇÖs dusty bookshop is!...áIf I could have read it in one sitting, I would have done.áA brilliant plot with some clever twists!áI think IâÇÖve foundáa new favourite series. I canâÇÖt wait for the next instalment. Highly recommended!âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈâÇÖAáfabulous historical noveláthat entertained me from the start...áReminiscent of Miss Jane Marple... I loved the inclusion of Bartleby, the bookshop cat who was very much a character in his own right.âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈâÇÖI loved this book. Hannah and Aunt Violet are wonderful characters and I liked them from the start. The surrounding characters are well imagined. The setting is interesting. I enjoyed the references to literature and the way books were a part of the story line...áVery entertaining and I highly recommend it.âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡ÈâÇÖSet against the backdrop of the war in 1915, with the very real fears of invasion and bombings, the characters are beautifully drawn, especially the wonderfully bold and rather scandalous suffragette Violet who carries a few secrets of her own and who I immediately loved. This isáa great start to a new cosy crime series and I am looking forward to seeing what happens nextáto the amateur sleuths and their friends.âÇÖ Goodreads reviewer â¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡Èâ¡È
