Description

'A bold, bright and delightful jaunt back to the golden age of detective fiction' – Janice Hallett, author of The Appeal 'A delicious read - who could resist a treasure hunt with murder at its core?' – SJ Bennett, author of The Windsor Knot 'It's a delight!' – Katie Fforde, author of Island in the Sun What antique would you kill for? Freya, it’s down to you to finish what I started . . . Freya Lockwood has avoided the quaint English village in which she grew up for the last 20 years. That is until news arrives that Arthur Crockleford, antiques dealer and Freya’s estranged mentor, has died – and the circumstances seem suspicious. You will uncover an invitation, I implore you to attend . . . But when a letter from Arthur is delivered, sent just days before his death, and an ordinary pine chest concealing Arthur’s journals are revealed, Freya finds herself sucked back into a life she’d sworn to leave behind. But beware, trust no-one. Your life depends on it . . . Joining forces with her eccentric Aunt Carole, Arthur’s staunch best friend, Freya follows both clues and her instincts to an old manor house for an ‘antiques enthusiasts weekend’. But not is all as it seems; the antiques are bad reproductions and the guests all have something to hide. Can Freya and Carole solve the mystery and unearth the killer before they strike again? Find out in The Antique Hunter's Guide to Murder, the unputdownable cosy crime caper from C L Miller. *********** 'What a unique and very enjoyable take on the classic whodunnit!' – Jo Silva, author of the Edge of the World Detective Agency series 'Irresistible, immersive and completely unputdownable, think the Antiques Roadshow meets Miss Marple with a deliciously OTT cast of characters and twist after twist after twist.' – Ellery Lloyd, author of The Club 'What a treat! A unique and compelling debut by an outstanding author - I couldn't stop turning the pages! The fabulously drawn characters leapt from the page and drew me into this engrossing murder mystery' – Kathryn Croft, author of The Girl in Room 12
