Miss Seeton by Moonlight by Hamilton Crane

Miss Seeton by Moonlight by Hamilton Crane

How do you catch an art thief? With artistic bait, of course. And who else but the talented Miss Seeton would provide a painting for Scotland Yard, hoping it will get stolen? Before the trap is sprung, a second thief strikes . . . in one of England’s most stately homes. Now Miss Seeton – incognito – is off to the scene to draw her own conclusions . . .

Serene amidst every kind of skullduggery, this eccentric English spinster steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles, armed with nothing more than her sketchpad and umbrella!

PRAISE FOR MISS SEETON:

'Miss Seeton gets into wild drama with fine touches of farce. . This is a lovely mixture of the funny and the exciting' San Francisco Chronicle

'This is not so much black comedy as black-currant comedy . . . You can't stop reading. Or laughing' The Sun

'Miss Seeton is a star' Detroit News

'A most beguiling protagonist!' New York Times

'Miss Seeton is the most delightfully satisfactory character since Miss Marple' Ogden Nash

Hamilton Crane is the pseudonym used by Sarah J. Mason when writing for the Miss Seeton series. She has also written detective fiction under her own name, but should not be confused with the Sarah Mason (no middle initial) who writes a rather different kind of book.

After half a century in Hertfordshire (if we ignore four years in Scotland and one in New Zealand), Sarah J. Mason now lives in Somerset—within easy reach of the beautiful city of Wells, and just far enough from Glastonbury to avoid the annual traffic jams.
