'Imogen Quy positively sparkles on the page as an amateur sleuth' - Sunday Express
What is the Summerfield secret?

A jewel in the traditional English detective mode . . . Ms. Morse has arrived

In Imogen Quy, the author has created an admirable detective heroine, as unabashed as she is unaffected

Jill Paton Walsh demonstrates that the traditional ingredients of the woman sleuth, the academic background and a clever puzzle are still capable of being arranged into an entertaining and stimulating crime novel
