Ruth P, Reviewer

Clara Vale Mysteries are always an excellent read. In the Penford Manor Murders, Clara encounters blackmail, murder, peril, romance among other challenges set in the splendour of a manor house decorated in the modern style of the day (Art Deco). The period details are intricately researched but don’t take away from the storyline and eclectic cast of characters. I thoroughly enjoyed trying to work out “who done it” alongside Clara as she and her trusty assistant Bella uncover more evidence that alter the obvious path that initially create more danger to all involved than answers. I was pleased to see reoccurring characters including some of her much maligned family members and a certain enigmatic Inspector. I was delighted to be given an opportunity to read an eARC of this book and look forward to read more adventures with Clara in the future.
