Another quite enjoyable story from the Dales Detective / Dating Agency. I was wondering which sort of story it would be without the big archenemy out of the way and I have to say this still worked for me in the most part. Some connections - Sarah knowing Louise Dinsdale (listened to the audiobook, so not 100% sure on spelling) and also the victim from uni - felt a bit far-fetched. I loved the whole "Who's the owner of Fellside Court?" plot and even the cupcake thief, though the revelations fell a bit short. Still haven't figured out how they actually got into the cafe? But it moved another romantic plot forward, finally! 

All in all, this would work well for me as a finale to the whole series. But of course I'd also like to hear more about all of the characters I've grown to love over the years
