Jenny has been reading Murder On The Tor by Frances Evesham
Reviewed by me as part of Rosie Amber’s Review Team.
Murder on the Tor is the latest Exham on Sea Mystery by Frances Evesham. There are two previous titles and they can be read as standalones or as part of a series. Murder on the Tor is well-paced and written in an easy conversational style. It has an intricate plot involving amber beads, a glimpse of the seventies, dangerous jealousies and homemade chocolates, all set in the glorious Devon countryside.
Our two detectives, Libby and Max, continue their tentative romance from an earlier story, while following a trail of confusing clues about a new murder. In the end, the mist lifts and the truth is revealed, not only about the Murder on the Tor, but also about Libby’s deceased husband, Trevor and his gang of crooked friends.
My favourite character has to be Bear, the gentle giant of a dog. The account of how Bear manages to help a young girl communicate is very touching. For readers looking for a quick cosy mystery – with hidden depths – I thoroughly recommend this delightful read.

This d.o.e.s. sounds cozy and delightful. 🙂

Sigh. I want to read every single book out there. Not enough hours in a day. Drat.

I think that would be my favorite character also — Bear, the dog. I think it personalizes a story more to add an animal character, even a small part.
