A Nice Tight Little Espionage Story.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I am a big Miss Silver fan, and this book, though different than her usual fare, is a treat. The story is more espionage than a mystery, but in true Patricia Wentworth style, she has drawn up some very good characters. And as always, Miss Silver and her friend DS Frank Abbott are there to help us through the plot. In this book, the plot is more complex than some of her books. There is a case of mistaken identity (maybe?), German spies (maybe?)and family skeletons. The Jocelyn family has a few of those in their closet, and we get to see them shaken out. I am certainly enjoying going through the long-running Miss Silver series again. A chance to catch up with some old favourites and to discover some new hidden gems (like this one).
