This was heaps better than the first Betty Church mystery, The Suffolk Vampire. The annoying characters were a lot less so or got satisfyingly told off and the mysteries were much juicier and more believable, if less palatable. 

I absolutely adore Emma Gregory as a narrator. She does all the voices so well, even the male ones.
