Review
"The reader is fortunate to have these three novels in a single package, since the connecting thread is a fascinating one -- Rose's complex personality, her rocky relationship with men, and her clever resolution of the murders she encounters. If there's a flaw in this series of narratives it's the occasionally inadequate explanation of just how Rose arrives at these solutions. . . .Readers . . . will find a marvelous depiction of Cornish life, with a delightful protagonist and satisfying plots."

Product Description
An omnibus edition of the first three titles in Janie Bolitho's popular Cornish mystery series featuring artist and amateur sleuth Rose Trevelyan. Snapped in Cornwall: Rose Trevelyan had only met Gabrielle Milton once, but felt they might become good friends. She was delighted, therefore, to receive an invitation to the Milton's party where the wine flowed freely and a good time was being had by all - that is, until Gabrielle's crumpled, lifeless body was found underneath a balcony. Framed in Cornwall: Dorothy Pengelly lived alone in her remote, dilapidated cottage with only her pets as company. When her old friend, Rose Trevelyan calls round to visit and finds Dorothy dead she is devastated. And when Rose learns that it wasn't a heart attack but a case of suicide her suspicions are immediately roused. Dorothy would never have killed herself - but would anyone have the motive to murder her? Buried in Cornwall: Rose's peaceful life is shattered when she finds herself at the centre of two murder enquiries. Moreover, Rose herself falls under suspicion.

By Julie B. "heart in the highlands" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Cornish Novels Omnibus (Paperback)
I like this series. The setting in Cornwall is a big plus, as the author now and then describes some of the natural beauty of the area. They are well-written mysteries, and this omnibus volume is a less expensive way to get hold of 3 of them. The only slight difficulty is the heaviness of the book and the tiny print. But, although small, I could still read it.
Listmania!
