â€œActuallyâ€”â€ Oh, dear, this was most embarrassing. It sounded soâ€”so aggressive. But she must be exact. â€œActually I was a little angryâ€”at his rudeness, you knowâ€”so I poked him in the back...â€

When Miss Seeton walks out after a performance of Carmen and witnesses a real-life stabbing, all she can recall is a shadowy figure. But how could she have guessed that her latest artistic endeavor is a picture-perfect portrait of the killer?

Her sketch puts her in a perilous position, for back at her recently inherited cottage in Plummergen village, sheâ€™s fated to be a sitting duck . . . for murder most foul!

Meet Miss Emily D. Seeton: retired art teacher Miss Seeton steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles. Armed with only her sketch pad and umbrella, she is every inch an eccentric English spinster and the most lovable and unlikely master of detection.

What people are saying about Miss Seeton:

â€œMiss Seeton is a hoot! I was torn between laughter and eye rolling with each page turn. The characters are loveable and thoroughly British. This is a perfect specimen of classic British mystery.â€œ

â€œWhat a joy Miss Seeton is. Why did I wait so long to read them? Splashy characters, lovely setting, and just plain funny.â€

â€œI've become a Miss Ess addict. Great characters that get better with each book. A must for anyone who loves a good British cozy with a twist, and surprising revelations of what a good brollie can do in a pinch.â€

â€œWhat a great series. This is one of the best in English light reading mysteries.â€

â€œAll of the Miss Seeton books are a delight. Just fun reading.â€

â€œLOVED this - the writing style is clever and unfolds much like a wonderful farce or a comedy of errors. You'll just fall in love with Miss Seeton - she's now my favorite British maiden aunt, and the supporting cast is a lot of fun too.â€

â€œVery entertaining. Better than Miss Marple. Can't wait to read more.â€

â€œHeron Carvic's inspired gentle satire of such elderly lady detectives as Miss Marple and Miss Silver is simply hilarious. Miss Seeton floats blithely through life, oblivious to the fact that she and her trusty umbrella are foiling bad guys at every turn.â€

â€œMiss Seeton is a delightful sendup of the amateur sleuth. If your doctor has prescribed laughter as the best medicine, run and buy the entire series as fast as you can.â€

â€œI fell in love with the character of Miss Seeton. It was a breath of fresh air compared to what is being written today.â€

â€œHow could you not love Miss Seeton?? So innocent, and kind. But, don't mess with her and her trusty umbrella!!â€

â€œShe drove me crazy then and she drives me crazy now, and yet, I will probably read the whole series again on my Kindle. There is something absolutely mesmerizing about this delightful lady . . . Will she ever wake up to the world? â€œ

â€œMiss Seeton gets into wild drama with fine touches of farce . . . This is a lovely mixture of the funny and the exciting.â€ San Francisco Chronicle

â€œDepth of description and lively characters bring this English village to life.â€ Publishers Weekly

â€œFun to be had with a full cast of endearingly zany villagers. . . and the ever gently intuitive Miss Seeton.â€ Kirkus Reviews
