About the Book

A glimpse of life through the eyes of a child.

Libby Frobisher is just three years old when she first meets her father. He brings fun and laughter into the Frobisher household, but over the next few years his visits are so infrequent it is like waiting for Christmas to come around. Libby has so many questions about her dad, but her mum and gran seem reluctant to provide any answers. When Libby discovers the truth, it feels like her whole world is turned upside down as she learns that life is far more complex than she could have ever imagined.

PRAISE FOR THE SUSSEX CRIME SERIES...

'I was pulled into this story from the very first page by the author's easy-to-read and entertaining writing style. Janie is a well-drawn character who becomes a sleuth after her friend Zara disappears following a traumatic event. I was intrigued to find out what had happened to Zara and the story unfolded at a great pace which kept me turning the pages. Everything is set up for the next in the series which I look forward to reading. A great book!'

'there are plenty of twists and turns before the story is resolved...I was delighted with the author's period detail: she captures the highs and lows of that era with a deft ouch.'

'This is an excellent novel from an author I will be watching out for. The writing is good; it flows well and creates scenes and characters that are eminently believable and gaging.'

'What I particularly liked about the book is that, although there is death and darkness, the seedier side of human life is not allowed to overwhelm the story which maintains a pretty easy style throughout, with plenty of kindness and humour.'

'This was a great find. A librarian turns to sleuthing in 1960's England looking for her missing friend. Janie Juke, an Agatha Christie enthusiast, is a very likeable protagonist. I really enjoyed the relationship she has with her blind ex-policeman father, as well as with her husband, Greg. A real page-turner. I've already bought the next book in the series and looking forward to being able to start on it. And hoping there will be many more to come.'

'This was a light and easy read where I got straight into the story. I really like the way the author depicted the 60s since I am too young enough to remember this era... but it is peppered with all sorts of nostalgia, the Beatles, the Vietnam War, not to mention colourful images of Woodstock and the hippie movement. I felt as if I was there!'

'1960s mobile librarian turns sleuth and channels Hercule Poirot in this great whodunnit that left me guessing right till the end. Intriguing detective story with lovely period setting and interesting characters. I'm looking forward to seeing what Janie Juke solves next. Love the relationship she has with her ex-policeman father.'

'Loved every page and didn't want to put it down. Looking forward to starting the next one soon.'

'I think my favourite part about this book is how character driven it is. We are given pieces of each main players life, and it seems to all come together in the end. This always makes for a great book. Characters that feel like real people, make the events of the novel seem real too.'

'Isabella Muir's writing is beautiful. Not only does she have the ability to bring her characters to life through dialogue, the mystery in this novel is very well done. It's subtle, and not in your face...it's more about how the past is not always what you think, and sometimes people aren't always who they say they are.'
