About this deal

Mais comment imaginer un seul instant que ce roman est annoncé comme le dernier de la série des détectives du Yorkshire ? However, although the crimes initially seem minor, we soon find that something very serious is going on in the Dales and the book has some very dark scenes. The fifth novel in Julia Chapman's delightful cozy mystery series featuring Samson O'Brien and Delilah Metcalfe, the Dales Detectives. Julia's Chapman's latest witty and engaging Dales Detective novel sees Delilah's brother under suspicion of murder.

The Nantucket location of this series pulled me in; the crisp plotting, interesting cast and great female lead kept me hooked. Des longueurs, du remplissage et des pages et des pages qui ne servent qu'à entretenir un suspense sans fin. The slow pace, the brilliantly depicted scenery, the accurate portrayal of life in a small community, not to mention the twists and turns of a well-drawn mystery, all contribute to making Inspector Gamache and his investigations worth following. As their inquiries are still ongoing, Clive Knowles approaches them needing some help: his sheep have been threatened by the gang of rustlers which plagues the Dales.Each book represents a chapter in the broader narrative, introducing new twists, turns, and perhaps the occasional talking dragon (disclaimer: dragons depend on the genre). Great descriptions of the landscape, characters and the shenanigans of the locals who inhabit her pages. But in each book we get a glimpse to the end game, so if you are going to start this series I recommend book one! Here, you'll discover not just the publication year, which is essential for understanding the context and evolution of the series, but also a succinct summary that teases the story without spoiling any surprises. Delilah, along with Samson O’Brien, begin to investigate what appears to be a straightforward case little realising that several of their cases are about to collide and enter more sinister territory.

So I was curious to see if my crush with this background was tied to the adrenaline rush I had with seven books read in a little more than a month. and The Wonton Warrior, for CBBC which received three international nominations for The Rockies, Kidscreen Awards and Content Innovation Awards. But after several disturbing incidents at Fellside Court, he begins to wonder if perhaps there is something malicious at the heart of the retirement community after all.

Having published a series of novels set in the idyllic French Pyrenees, she has now turned her hand to crime. Against the backdrop of a Yorkshire winter, Samson and Delilah must work together once again if they are to uncover the malevolence threatening the elderly residents of Bruncliffe. Date With Poison” is the fourth novel in the “Dales Detectives” series and was released in the year 2019.
