The debut that kicked off twenty-two books (and counting…) of the bestselling, beloved Aunt Dimity series. Watch out for Nancy Atherton’s latest, Aunt Dimity and the King’s Ransom, coming in July 2018 from Viking!Lori Shepherd thought Aunt Dimity was just a character in a bedtime story……Until the Dickensian law firm of Willis & Willis summons her to a reading of the woman’s will. … reading of the woman’s will. Down-on-her-luck Lori learns she’s about to inherit a siazable estate–if she can discover the secret hidden in a treasure trove of letters in Dimity’s English country cottage. What begins as a fairy tale becomes a mystery–and a ghost story–in an improbably cozy setting, as Aunt Dimity’s indominable spirit leads Lori on an otherworldly quest to discover how, in this life, true love can conquer all.

Love the characters in these books and love the author.
I bought this book 20 years ago to the month and finally read it two nights ago. This was one of the best books I have ever read and I have read a ton (or more) of them, literally! The main characters were fun, the plot was fast paced and shocking at times and it stirs the soul. I cannot give it a higher rating than that. READ this book! You won’t regret it!
I’m so glad I found this series. Intelligent, but light mysteries, and just what I needed. You can start anywhere in the series, as I did. But I went back to read this first book and I recommend it–it explains so much! It’s just delightful.
Love all the Aunt Dimity’s books.
I love this series. Great mysteries, and life lessons to be learned.
I loved it. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
Light hearted. Light romance. I love these books
Fun and easy to read, cosy
