review 1: This was my first book in this series and I really liked it. I loved the descriptions of the Welsh town and most of the character quirks weren't annoying. I enjoyed the main characters and their quirks. I look forward t more in this series! The only complaint was that the murder solving/ending was a bit abrupt. I wasn't expecting it...which I guess isn't always a bad thing. All in all a nice cozy Christmas read!!!
review 2: A Killer's Christmas in Wales is the third book in the series, but the first I have read. The Christmassy village is described as the archetypal Welsh village in winter I was in Christmas heaven as the whodunit was played against a background of Christmas activities. So much everyday detail – cups of tea, decorated shop windows, holly ber... moreries, a village play – yet the detail was not so great that your eyes glaze over in the minutia. The person who was murdered was dispatched in a satisfactory manner (stabbed and pushed off a wall in a castle ruin) and the main suspect had every reason to kill. When the murderer was revealed I was taken by surprise, but it all made sense. The investigation took place with good humour, a sense of menace as the truth was about to come out, and a little bit of romance between the village policeman and the amateur sleuth. All in all a lovely Christmas mystery! less
