5.0 out of 5 stars As cosy and comfortable as your well-worn slippers., 17 Feb 2007
By John Austin "austinjr@bigpond.net.au" (Kangaroo Ground, Australia) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
This review is from: The Case of William Smith (A Miss Silver Mystery) (Paperback)
William Smith suffers from amnesia and also from often being pushed into the path of oncoming cars - ideas for plots frequently exploited in films and crime novels of this book's vintage, 1950. Who is doing the pushing, a man or a woman? Who is William Smith who has lost his memory?

Knitting together more coincidences than there are stitches on Miss Silver's knitting needles, Patricia Wentworth ravels out solutions to these mysteries in one of her most appealing crime novels. Miss Silver conducts investigations, coughing politely, always preferring "do not" to "don't" and advising and cautioning here and there. Dispensing coffee and cakes by the fire she explains all at the end.

Diana Bishop's warm, mellow reading of this novel was released in audio book form during 2006.

5.0 out of 5 stars the first miss silver book i read, 21 July 2003
This review is from: The Case of William Smith (A Miss Silver Mystery) (Paperback)
This was the first Miss Silver book I read and it prompted me to search for others. Now there are more books available which is great but this is still my favorite. The suspense and atmosphere are incredible and this book is a must for Miss Silver fans. The romance is sweet but not sickly and the characterisation is wonderful.
