Pip

*****

This book tells the story of Orla , her husband Charlie, her daughter Pip and son Liam. They live in an isolated cottage in Victorian Yorkshire , miles from the nearest village. Initially Orla becomes ill and leaves her family for no apparent reason. She is later found murdered and a hunt begins to find her killer.However the majority of the village hates her making no easy task for Jarvis ,the local Inspector heading the investigation.
A beautiful, enthralling, emotional historical romance/whodunit which drew me in at the first few chapters and kept me hooked to the very end.
This book had me close to tears one minute and smiling the next !
I loved it 😊

A great piece of historical fiction unusually blending character romance with a twisty whodunnit. The characters and Yorkshire setting are very authentic and conjure vivid images; the plot is fast fast-paced and twisty and, as someone who nearly always works out who did it, it was a pleasant surprise not to figure this one out. An easy, very satisfying read. Highly recommended.
