Popular mystery writer Nancy Atherton is praised for her heart-warming mysteries and the loveable characters who inhabit them. In Aunt Dimity's Death, Atherton deftly weaves a cozy, modern story with endearing snapshots of a time long past. Lori Shepherd's fondest childhood memories are of her mother, Beth, telling countless, fascinating bedtime stories about a character named Aunt Dimity. Now an adult, Lori receives quite a shock when she learns Aunt Dimity was a real person and has recently died. In fact, Dimity and Beth met during World War II and remained the closest of friends for many years. Summoned to an eccentric law office, Lori's bewilderment grows when informed that Dimity has left a complicated task for her-and a handsome reward upon completion. Combining fairy tale, ghost story, and romantic elements, Nancy Atherton crafts a sensitive and delightful mystery. Christina Moore's enchanting narration enlivens all the charm and grace of this warm novel.
