Review Summary: Introducing Miss Seeton
Review: This the first book in the Miss Seeton series, introduces a number of characters that appear in later books. The book starts when Miss Seeton, an art teacher is in the process of retiring to the country. An night at the opera Carmen, sees her stumbling into a similar situation on the way home. Thus we meet Bob Ranger and Inspector Delphic of Scotland Yard, who speak to her about the crime she witnessed. This scene is pure comedy and I laugh whenever I read it, I pity poor Bob Ranger taking notes. Miss Seeton as she describes herself is a logical person, and she can't understand her strange (psychic) drawings or why the people around her find her actions remarkable. This book while being a crime mystery, is also a lovely comic romp through the eccentric characters of the English countryside. I throughly recommend this book to anyone who has enjoys crime, light comedy and romance.

Review Summary: Wodehouse and Christie meet
Review: Heron Carvic starts off his Miss Seeton series with this delightful romp through England. Miss Seeton is sort of a Marple type, with a tad more zing thrown in. She manages to foil (by mistake) all attempts on her life, capture the bad guys, and and up with a nurse and a detective sergeant happily in love. A lot of fun, though the plot can be a bit weak at points.
