Miss Seeton, By Appointment by Hampton Charles

Miss Seeton, By Appointment by Hampton Charles

Miss Seeton is off to Buckingham Palace on a secret mission but to foil a jewel heist, she must risk losing the Queens head... and her own neck. 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:

'A most beguiling protagonist!' New York Times

'Light, zany, this novel is peopled by several genuine human beings you hate to see go' Houston Post

'Depth of description and lively characters bring this English village to life' Publishers Weekly

'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

Hampton Charles was a pseudonym of English crime writer Peter Martin (1931–2014). Born a London cockney, he preferred for a number of years to live and write his books in a remote village even smaller than Miss Emily Seeton’s Plummergen. He wrote three Miss Seeton titles: Advantage Miss Seeton, Miss Seeton at the Helm, and Miss Seeton, By Appointment.
