About this product

Product Information

Bridgestead is a peaceful spot: a babbling brook, rolling hills and a working mill at its heart. Pretty and remote, nothing exceptional happens... Until the day that Master of the Mill Joshua Braithwaite goes missing in dramatic circumstances, never to be heard of again. Now Joshua's daughter is getting married and wants one last attempt at finding her father. Has he run off with his mistress, or was he murdered for his mounting coffers? Kate Shackleton has always loved solving puzzles. So who better to get to the bottom of Joshua's mysterious disappearance? But as Kate taps into the lives of the Bridgestead dwellers, she opens cracks that some would kill to keep closed...

Reviews
"The first in a planned series introduces a refreshingly complex heroine and adds a fine feeling for the postwar period." - Kirkus Reviews Four out of four stars. "...a lovely start to a series that will have historical fiction fans well-pleased and looking forward to more from a new, very appealing heroine." - The Mystery Reader "This well-plotted and atmospheric tale is enriched by technical expertise and a vividly imagined Yorkshire setting. Kate Shackleton joins Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs in a sub-group of young female amateur detectives who survived and were matured by their wartime experiences... They make excellent heroines." - Literary Review "Brody's winning tale of textile industry shenanigans is shot through with local color." - The Independent (UK) "Highly entertaining...Frances Brody writes with charm and yet knows how to keep the reader guessing at every stage of the book. If you like pure detective novels you will love this." - Gazette & Herald(UK) "The story, with its secure setting in the richly-detailed woollen industry, is an excellent read. The characterization is strong and convincing and the sense of period well conveyed." - Mystery Women "The background detail of milling and dyeing is spot on...as is her ear for the West Riding accent and dialect. The plot twists nicely and the denouement was, to me, unexpected." - Country Life "This is whimsical, colorful stuff and readers will warm to the entrepreneurial yet fragile Kate." - Take a Break "Kate Shackleton is a delightful leading character. The flavor of First World War England is beautifully portrayed. The world of the mill and the mill owner has gone, but in this book it is easy to image what it must have been like...[Kate's] aristocratic connections give the story a whiff of Wimsey and a touch of Christie, but mostly this is just an enjoyable and gripping mystery story with a nasty sting in the tail." - CrimeSquad.com "Dying in the Wool is a delightful book...the descriptive detail of the countryside and small village of Bridgestead is so vivid I could literally have been there. Kate Shackleton is a wonderful character and I connected with her immediately. She's a very determined soul in a time when women were still treated as second class citizens...A very gentle book, but with a lot of substance." - BookChickCity.com "Dying in the Wool has a winning heroine, a fresh and fascinating setting, richly detailed and well-woven into the plot, and a mystery that twists and tightens and twists again, before pulling together to a surprising and satisfying solution." - Catriona McPherson, author of Dandy Gilver and the Proper Treatment of Bloodstains "The 1920s are a fascinating and under-used period for new crime fiction, so it's a particular pleasure to have Frances setting her story at that time. Kate Shackleton is a splendid heroine...I'm looking forward to the next book in the series!" - Ann Granger "Reminiscent of Dorothy L. Sayers and Agatha Christie with a thoroughly likeable protagonist and a plot that held me to the end." - Mignon F. Ballard, author of the Miss Dimple Kilpatrick Mystery Series
