cimorene1558's review against another edition
4.0
I enjoy this collection of connected short stories a great deal; worth re-reading often! I'm also glad to reconnect with Jonas Pickett, who seems to have mellowed considerably.

Jonah Pickett leaves the pressures of the big city and, aiming at moving into semi retirement, sets up his solicitors’ office in the small town of Shackleton-on-Sea. His hopes for a quiet life disappear as cases are constantly brought to him. A collection of short stories that make up a complete whole. Gentle mysteries (‘mysteries’ being a little too strong a word for them) that are less important than the development of the characters and description of the life of the small town. Enjoyable but probably best listened to while doing something else.
