This volume's guest on honor, so to speak, is Beatrix Potter before she begins her career as a writer and illustrator of children's books. A village constable is killed and attempts are made to frame him for poaching. Sir Charles and Kate become involved and discover a ring of local thieves behind the death. ( )

A nice follow up in the series, although there was little personal development. The mystery was more the focus of this book, and it was a really good mystery as well. I'm ambivalent about the series as a whole though, and will probably not continue to read further. It's just not capturing me. ( )

Synopsis: Kate Ardleigh is once more confronted with murder. In this case, a policeman is murdered and then accused with poaching. His name must be cleared to ensure that his wife and daughter receive his pension. Kate also meets Beatrix Potter; they work together to solve the mystery becoming good friends in the process.
Review: An easy to read cozy mystery, the clues are apparent but easily missed. Rich descriptions of both characters and setting pull the reader into the narrative. The introduction of police procedures adds depth to the story. ( )
