Trouble In The Town Hall by Jeanne M. Dams

5.0

So many great twists and turns. Little slips of humor, great dialog with the many accents of England. Love the yin and yang between the English and Mrs. Martin, "the American lady". Excellent plots that keep you guessing along with our heroine. She may be older, and a little stiff in the joints, but she is a force to be reckoned with when she in on the scent of a murderer. Very enjoyable read.

This is a cozy series about an expat American in small-town England. She's lonely and meddlesome and actually quite delightful. I will continue to read this series.

Second book in the series of the American living in small town England helping solve the murder of a stranger in the Town Hall.
I like the characters in this book- and hte setting- even though the town is not a real place- it is easily imaginable.

Book #36 read in 2006

I really think these books have too much drudge. It takes a lot to get through the mud in the book. I figured out the whodunit pretty early on, but not the connection. I may read another in this series, but it seems unlikely right now.

I liked the first book in the series, but this one felt pointless and rather stupid. Dorothy is a terrible sleuth, but she gets answers handed to her constantly for no reason I can discern.

And if you know who did it, leave a message for the police even if you can't reach the person you most want to talk to. This isn't rocket surgery.
