A Death at Silversmith Bay

A Jemima Jago Mystery, Book 3

De: Emma Jameson

Narrado por: Tamsin Kennard

Librarian Jemima Jago can’t resist a whodunnit, but finding a body in a bookshop is a plot twist she could never have expected....

Jem Jago is back at work with her antique books, and spending her weekends exploring her new home - the windswept Isles of Scilly - in her little sailboat, 'Bellatrix'. She’s really starting to settle into island life. Unfortunately, murder in the Scillies is not as rare as some of her manuscripts....

On a trip out to picturesque Penzance, with best friend Micki, the pair stumble across an intriguing mystery, not of the fictional kind. In Tatteredly’s second-hand bookstore, they discover the body of beautiful Gina Marrak, Micki’s former sister-in-law.

Jem can’t bear to see Micki so distraught, and with the hapless Detective Conrad in charge of the inquiry, she must do some sleuthing of her own to find out the truth. As she convinces Gina’s so-called friends to talk, Jem learns she wasn’t actually well-liked in her little corner of Penzance. Did the jilted lover, the pretentious pub landlord, or the rowdy real estate agent bump off poor Gina?

Poking around the scene of the crime, Jem finds an unusual book, which leads her down an unlikely path. But can Jem get to the bottom of the mystery, before the terrible tale comes to an end for her, too?

A fun, cozy mystery from the New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Emma Jameson. Fans of M.C. Beaton, Faith Martin, and Agatha Christie will be totally hooked!

Fun and Entertaining

A Death a Silversmith Bay is a fun and entertaining cozy mystery with engaging characters and an interesting plot. I look forward to the next book in this series.

I like this series

I hope the author keeps this series going. Im enjoying it. The narrator is a good fit she’s performed the characters very well.

Whiny character which throws people gf the vibe

I have really enjoyed the other books in the Jem Jago series, but Tori the sister, is a hard character to stomach. She whines incessantly, and it gets old very quickly.

Great cosy mystery series

A great series along similar lines as M C Beaton’s Agatha Raisin mysteries but with slightly younger players. Not too gory, not boring at all. Great narrator.

Not as good as the others

Disappointed in the weak story, the unbelievable characters and the walrus that is tamed by a song. Cartoonish.

Distasteful

Cornwall is such a lovely place. Why would Ms. Jameson dwell on garbage, cat pee, unwashed clothes, public humiliation and unpleasant people. I didn't care who killed or was killed. No more.
