Format:Paperback
The second Libby Sarjeant mystery and it's just as good if not better than the first. Fun to read, involving, great characters and a puzzle that keeps you wondering until the v. end. I particularly love the way the setting and characters come to life, they're not just pawns to move the mystery along.

Format:Paperback
This was a compulsive escape when I needed one! More twists and turns in the plot than a maze of country lanes, and I don't know whether Lesley Cookman's on the payroll of the Kent Tourist Board, but if not she should be! Deft, evocative descriptions that never once get in the way of the action -a waft of that lovely, English-seasidy smell took me right back. Long weekend looking for Coastguard Cottage etc. now high on the list. As for Libby and mates, it's not often you find such an instantly likeable set of characters. Long may they sup their bevvies together while Libby ferrets out more dastardly Kentish murders.

Once again I found that I couldn't put lesley's new book down I wanted to find out what happened next. Lesley makes her characters come to life.There is always a twist just when you thought that you had solved it.
I can't wait for November and the next book.

This was the first Libby Sarjeant volume I'd read, and I have to confess, I found the first few pages hard going, but once I was through them, what a refreshing change this work... Read more

Excellent second novel in the Libby Sargeant series. I much preffered this one to the first which was set in a theatre. Read more

Murder at the Laurels
Lesley Cookman has an easy readable style- her story flows and the plot is not too complicated. This is the first of her books that I have read, but I will read more. Read more
