Miss Seeton Plants Suspicion
แแ แแแฌแแแแแก แจแแกแแฎแแ
But the holiday jollity brings no cheer for local police Superintendent Brinton, who is all too aware itโs a whole year since the gruesome โBlonde in the Bagโ murder, and they are still no nearer a solution.
Will MissEss be asked to set aside her newfound hobby of gardening and lend a hand? And where in her strange sketches of the Last Night of the Proms are the clues that might identify a brutal killer?
Serene amidst every kind of skulduggery, this eccentric English spinster steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles, armed with nothing more than her sketchpad and umbrella!
What people are saying about Miss Seeton:โMiss Seeton is a hoot! I was torn between laughter and eye rolling with each page turn. The characters are loveable and thoroughly British. This is a perfect specimen of classic British mystery.โ
โWhat a joy Miss Seeton is. Why did I wait so long to read them? Splashy characters, lovely setting, and just plain funny.โ
โI've become a Miss Ess addict. Great characters that get better with each book. A must for anyone who loves a good British cozy with a twist, and surprising revelations of what a good brollie can do in a pinch.โ
โWhat a great series. This is one of the best in English light reading mysteries.โ
โMiss Seeton is a delightful sendup of the amateur sleuth. If your doctor has prescribed laughter as the best medicine, run and buy the entire series as fast as you can.โ

Hamilton Crane is the pseudonym used by Sarah J. Mason when writing for the Miss Seeton series. She has also written detective fiction under her own name, but should not be confused with the Sarah Mason (no middle initial) who writes a rather different kind of book.
After half a century in Hertfordshire (if we ignore four years in Scotland and one in New Zealand), Sarah J. Mason now lives in Somersetโwithin easy reach of the beautiful city of Wells, and just far enough from Glastonbury to avoid the annual traffic jams.
