Review

'A particular favourite' -- Andrew Taylor 'Miss Silver is marvellous' -- Daily Mail '... some of the best examples of the British country-house murder mystery' -- Alfred Hitchcock magazine 'Miss Silver has her place in detective fiction as surely as Lord Peter Wimsey or Hercule Poirot' -- Manchester Evening News 'Miss Wentworth is a first rate story-teller' -- Daily Telegraph 'You can't go wrong with Miss Maud Silver' -- Observer 'Miss Wentworth's plot is ingenious, her characterization acute, her solution satisfying' -- The Scotsman 'Patricia Wentworth has created a great detective in Miss Silver, the little old lady who nobody notices, but who in turn notices everything' -- Paula Gosling

Product Description

There were times when Rachel Treherne fervently wished that her beloved father had left his fortune to somebody else, so overburdened did she feel with the administration of her estate. And never more so than now for, although she was surrounded by relatives who depended on her, whom she loved and who must surely love her, there was no doubt in her mind that somebody was trying to kill her. Threatening letters could be ignored, odd tasting chocolates can be rejected but when snakes are left in her bed, Rachel is convinced that someone means here terrible harm. Her only chance of a future life lay with Miss Silver, and Miss Silver was well on the way to unmasking the murderer when they struck again.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Early Miss Silver Mystery, July 9 2004

By	S. Schwartz "romonko" (alberta canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lonesome Road (Paperback)

I can't believe that I'm the first to review a book that was written in 1939. If you are a Miss Silver fan, then you should read this book. This is an early volume from the series. It's important to see her development throughout the many years that Ms. Wentworth wrote of her. This book, like many in the series is a little dated, but it's still a smashing good mystery. Ms. Wentworth is a fine example of golden age detective story writing and quite incomparable when it comes to writing British country-house murder mysteries. In this book Miss Silver is asked by Rachel Treherne to come to her manor house to determine who among her large extended family is trying to kill her. Miss Silver investigates in her own unique style, and quickly determines who the culprit is, but then it's a matter of getting the proof.
