Praise for A Pretty Deceit
"While visiting a titled auntie who has fallen on postwar hard
times, Verity finds herself on hand for the immediate aftermath of
what may be a homicide on the estate grounds. Combine that with
priceless heirlooms gone missing, a disappeared staff and a ghost
sighting or two, and you have the makings of a historical mystery
to delight fans of Agatha Christie or Daphne du Maurier."
