Description
Hats Off To Murder - A Novelette:
'A milliner must understand his client, capture their personality and crown them with it.'
Blake Hetherington is no ordinary Milliner. Fascinated by human nature, he is not content with simply selling hats; he must know his customer. Two deaths, a sudden disappearance, and a visit from Miss Delilah Delibes, set the man milliner on the path to solving a mystery. But what lies beneath the hat? Can a milliner discover the truth?
A shrewd and sometimes intolerant widower; Blake has a big heart, a true sense of justice and weakness for the damsel in distress. Often finding himself on a 'sea of assumptions without a paddle of truth', he carefully and methodically gathers the evidence to solve the mystery. The odd glance, the chance meeting or the peculiar habits of his customers all lead him to the answer.
'D.S. Nelson does everything a mystery writer should do: she entertains and informs. ' - J C Bernthal, - Amazon reviewer.
'If you are a fan of the English mystery, add this to your want list.' - Judith Catanzaro - Amazon reviewer.
‘D.S. Nelson has a way of making her readers feel as if they are tunnelling through her stories. It is as if you can feel the temperature through every turn’. - J.Ojanpera, Amazon reviewer.
'A great little bundle of a read, loved D S Nelson's turn of phrase...' - D Lewry, Amazon reviewer
"Hats off to Murder" had me intrigued from beginning to end' - P Singleton, www.whatagreathat.com
About The Author:
D S Nelson's introduction to murder came from Agatha Christie. Her inquisitive Miss Marple, of St Mary Mead, and very Belgian Poirot, with his 'little grey cells', captured her imagination from a young age. The intellectual and astute Sherlock Holmes, of Arthur Conan Doyle's detective fiction, is also a clear influence in her writing.
With a passion for cosy murder mysteries, her writing includes cosy crime novelettes, and short stories. She is currently working on the Blake Hetherington series of mystery books, the first of which is 'Hats Off To Murder.'
