She spent the majority of that time as a teacher of English as a Foreign Language but also dabbled in bookselling, pawnbroking, waitressing and was once 'checkout chick of the month' at a supermarket in South Australia. They congregated in The Fleece, a pub where everyone knows everything about you – and sometimes even before you! No doubt frightening and worrying if this were real life - but not super enticing in terms of fictional plot.

Mais comment imaginer un seul instant que ce roman est annoncé comme le dernier de la série des détectives du Yorkshire ?There are lots of little things left unsolved from the previous volumes that are answered, and the people of Bruncliffe are not at the end of their surprises. Chapman has created a superb cast of characters with all the domestic gossip, rivalries, fallings-out and community spirit anyone who grew up in a small town will love and recognise. Romantic attachments that have been bubbling for a while are cemented, whilst the untrustworthy members of the town have been routed.

The author has brought to life the North Yorkshire landscape and populated it with wonderful characters. Peterborough Telegraph A teenager has gone missing from Bruncliffe, can Samson O'Brien and Delilah Metcalfe find him? In the seventh novel in Julia Chapman's charming Dales Detective series, Date with Betrayal, betrayal is rife in the idyllic Yorkshire Dales as Samson O'Brien, owner of the Dales Detective Agency, is targeted by a hitman. When I first moved to the Yorkshire Dales, I was still writing a series of books set in the French Pyrenees.

While Samson and Delilah combine resources once more, before too long they have become embroiled in untangling this mystery which has lain at the town’s core for decades.

When a pensioner turns up at the Dales Detective Agency and tells Samson O'Brien that someone in her old people's home is trying to kill her, he dismisses her fears as the ramblings of a confused elderly lady. Described by the publisher as a “combination of beguiling charm and witty ingenuity” the first seven titles in the series have sold in excess of 200,000 copies throughout the world in the English language and have also been translated into French, German, Italian, Dutch, Danish, Swedish and Estonian. They get better with each book and we get to see more and more characters that add a lot to the story – old people, a rich guy, questionable characters, all together shady characters, a fun as hell cleaner/maid, and so much more!And with attention elsewhere, only a local vet is paying attention to a worrying spate of canine poisonings happening throughout the village. This works as a stand-alone but I think familiarity with past events would have added to my enjoyment. Date With Mystery” is the third novel in the “Dales Detectives” series and was released in the year 2018. Set in Calcutta in 1919, this offers a fascinating historical backdrop for the protagonists, Captain Wyndham and Sergeant Banerjee.
