Things are going well for Kat Stanford; not only is her antiques business thriving, she's also got a new date: Piers Carew, viscount of Chawley, who owns the estate next to Honeychurch Hall. Unfortunately, Kate has a rival. Impossibly beautiful Cassandra Bowden-Forbes is also in town, conducting valuations at the same fairs as Kat - and she makes no secret of the fact she's got her eye on Piers.... And then things start to go wrong: Kat finds herself at the scene of not one, but two mysterious deaths, and local tongues are wagging - is it coincidence or murder?

A cleverly written mystery/comedy
Very entertaining story! Don't even mind that the murder isn't discovered until late in the story. Interplay between Iris and Kat is great and new characters enhance the story. Nice little dash of the eerie and the descriptions of Alfred as a seer are a little creepy and fun. At times it has the feel of a screwball comedy with Iris and her romance novel post it notes and characters eavesdropping and coming and going.The whole Jersey cash thing is a hoot. I want to hear more about Sean though :) Moving right on to the next one. Highly recommend this romp!

Deadly Desires at Honeychurch Hall
This book was not for me. ..It was TOO everything. Too busy, too crazy, too many crazies, too much to enjoy. I'll just say too Keystone Cops. If that doesn't explain it to you, go ahead and read it. Some people love the Keystone Cops concept. I'm not one of them.
