Product Description

Review
'The latest Melissa Craig story is just what the doctor ordered ... The writing is excellent ... All the characters are well drawn ... when the writing is as smooth and competent as this, they are just too good to put down!' Sherlock on Sweet Venom Praise for Betty Rowland's previous Melissa Craig mysteries: 'Full of sharp insights with an unexpected twist in the tail' - Val McDermid, Manchester Evening News 'A clearly gifted and knowledgeable writer, never less than engaging and readable' - Financial Times 'Gently old-fashioned whodunit, riddled with lurking anguish' - The Times 'A splendidly lively debut ... good plotting, well-crafted writing and believable characterisation' - Publishing News 'All the best ingredients of English crime ... a novel of sharp insights' - Cotswold Life 'A younger version of Miss Marples.' Leicester Mercury on Sweet Venom 20041207

Product Description
Aidan Cresney seems to be a model citizen. An active member of the parish council and a former barrister, he took up beekeeping as a retirement hobby. Cresney confidently boasts that bees will never attack an apiarist 'who knows what he's doing'. Yet one day he is found dead after suffering multiple stings. When a second family member dies in similar circumstances, tongues begin to wag. And Melissa Craig, the Cotswolds' intrepid crime-writing sleuth, starts to uncover some disturbing secrets.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing., 27 Jul 2004
By A Customer
As an avid fan of Melissa Craig I was eagerly awaiting the latest in the series but, having just completed reading it, I was rather disappointed. A shallow story-line with equally disappointing characters. All rather predictable.What a shame she's married boring Joe Martin. Hopefully he will be her next murder victim! Bring back some of the original characters that have been omitted from this book or create others who grab our interest and imagination moving the investigation along. Please leave mum to stagnate in her bungalow in future.
