The original paranormal detective returns in the latest installment of a beloved mystery series Lori Shepherd’s life in England couldn’t be more tranquil or more satisfying— except for one thing. Her five- year-old twins have started school, and Lori fears they’ll catch everything from the flu t...
Aunt Dimity and the Deep Blue Sea (2007)
I really enjoyed this book. I think it's more about my desperation to find and read good books with female protagonists, than a statement about this book. Aunt Dimity and the Deep Blue Sea breaks all the rules, and does it badly. It's filled with telling instead of showing. What this means is it'...

Aunt Dimity Digs In (1999)
I’m such a fan of Nancy Atherton’s, I savour ‘Lori et al’ but must concede a mellower rating. “Aunt Dimity Digs In” treated me to the usual eloquence and whimsy, although I felt left out, to meet the twins at four months. Nancy evoked understanding as colourfully as always; a parent too bedrag...
Aunt Dimity's Christmas (2000)

They're like the comfort food of books.In this book, our intrepid and trouble-finding heroine, Lori, decides to head out alone for a 5-hour hike, on a path her friend Emma tells her is "simple, and without risk" - we...
Aunt Dimity Takes a Holiday (2004)
Threatening notes and family drama take precedence when Lori and Bill stay at Derek's family estate for a week. We finally get the lowdown on Derek's background. It's far-fetched that the family's extremely high social standing might have escaped Emma's notice over the years - after all, Nell and...

Aunt Dimity Beats The Devil (2001)
When this book came up in a reading group, I was sure that I had read it, I love this series so when I went looking for my review, I could not find it anywhere. I was beginning to wonder if I had unwittingly skipped it. As soon as I finished the first chapter I knew the story, well, I thought I ...
