Aunt Dimity: Snowbound by Nancy Atherton
I made good speed up the lane. It was easy to follow, straight and level, with steep banks on either side, and the ferocious wind helped, too, pushing at my back like a giant hand, as if eager to hurry me on my way. Nevertheless, the snow was shin-deep and rising by the time I spied the ghostly outline of a building dead ahead.
(Start of Chapter 3)
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Series: Aunt Dimity #9
Lori Shepherd and the phantom Aunt Dimity have become one of the mystery genre’s most celebrated detective duos. In their latest adventure, a pleasant woodland stroll through the English countryside is rudely cut short by the blizzard of the century, forcing Lori to take shelter in Ladythorne Abbey—an old pile still haunted by the presence of the madwoman whose prison it once was. But the abbey’s greatest secret is the priceless jewel it conceals somewhere within its cloisters—an heirloom that hides a treacherous past that Lori’s fellow guests can’t wait to get their hands on. Only Aunt Dimity’s indispensable wisdom can help Lori unravel a mystery that is considerably thicker than the accumulating snow in this page-turning treat.

Snow...I wonder how I would live my life if it ever snowed over here in Southern Cali.
My TT
Vonnie: Seeing how Southern Californians reacted to a good snowstorm would be interesting to see. The entire state would probably shut down, LOL. :D
Sounds she would be happy to get out of the snow!

Sounds like a good cozy mystery. I'll read this one.
My Teaser is from SEVEN LITTLE WORDS.
Sounds so tempting! Thanks for sharing...and enjoy.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Great imagery. As for me, I've had enough of snow. It could go away now.

Just when I was trying to forget about Winter.
I've never read any of the Aunt Dimity mysteries. I might see if the library has one on audio.
I'm quite intrigued by this book, I've not heard of it or the author but it does sound like a great read. Thanks for sharing :-)
Sonia: I know I would be!
Sandra: This is a good series. I recommend starting with the first, Aunt Dimity's Death, since that sets up the entire series.
Laurel-Rain: Happy to have tempted you! :)
PD: I'm with you--I've had enough of the snow and cold for one year.
Alice: LOL...Sorry 'bout that! ☺
Shelley: There are about 19 books in the series now. I recommend starting with book one, Aunt Dimity's Death.
Thanks, Cleo -- Happy to have intrigued you with this book/series. As mentioned in my post, this is book 9 of 19, so you might want to start at the beginning.
I do like the teaser. Enjoy your book.
Thanks, Kelley!
