Review: MURDER MOST FOWL by V. S. Vale

First in the Swansneck Village Mysteries, MURDER MOST FOWL is a heartwarming delight, a British village cosy. Although the series has s contemporary setting, I believe it will endear itself to readers of Miss Marple and other village amateur sleuths of the classic Golden Age of Mystery, as well as to readers steeped in American cozies, which often emphasize crafts, books, baking, chocolaterie, and cooking.

Our heroine returns to tiny Swansneck Village, not in shame but instead to fulfill her late uncle's legacy. Marriage in London had proved convenient but unfulfilling, and her stressful City jib ran her ragged. Now she has her uncle's home and pigeons, and has just purchased a hat shop, to convert into a Vintage emporium. She's also just discovered the obsession of solving mysteries.
