I am looking forward to reading each title in this series over the next couple of years since the first one dates back to 1981.Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 14:22:51 Bookplateleaf 0004 Boxid IA103005 Camera Canon EOS 5D Mark II City Boston DonorĬityofsausalitolibrary Edition 1st ed. Well-written, engaging and quite a bit of fun, Martha introduces the reader to unforgettable characters like Melrose Plant whose aunt, Lady Ardry is a craw in his side and Marshall Trueblood, the local antiquities dealer and of course the pubs themselves like the Cock and Bottle, Bag O'Nails and the Man with a Load of Mischief.

Inspector Richard Jury from New Scotland Yard is sent to figure out this mess. Taking place in the sleepy little town of Long Piddleton, Northants, 5 people end up murdered within days of one another. The Man with a Load of Mischief is a delightful murder mystery read. The quaint, many-hued cottages lining Long Piddletons High Street were capped with new snow and glittering in the morning sunshine.
