C is for the Captain
“5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely, cosy, village saga/mystery. I love this series of novellas. Fiction, but based on everyday life experiences: growing up, growing old, death, family, relationships. This is the third book in the series, and I found it absorbing straightaway. I was asking many questions as I read-would this happen/would that happen etc. I thought of possible scenarios-would I be right or would the author completely surprise me? She certainly did! It was fun sussing out things as I read, it really kept me guessing.”

“This is the second in the series about the delightful denizens of Sixpenny Cross, Victoria Twead's fictional village in Dorset. Like the first in the series, A Is for Abigail, this one is a quick and joyful read. A tightly written and expertly edited little book, satisfying throughout. Highly recommended.”
