I love a good cosy novel to curl up and take me away to another world and this novel didn’t disappoint. With a wry sense of humour and wacky, fun characters, Ms. Winston introduces you to the character of Anastasia Pollack and her mad cap family who all live with her. Her mother who collects husbands because they all die on her, and her Mother in law who spouts communists views and blames everything on people being anti- communist including her husband’s disappearance when her son was a child. Her two teenage son aren't much help around the house as most young men aren't. and poor Anastasia is facing financial ruin because of her recently deceased husband .Her husband dropped dead while gambling all their money away, and their teenage son’s college funds. If that wasn’t bad enough Anastasia finds her boss murdered in her office and it looks like someone has set her up for the fall. Then she starts getting calls from someone threatening her life and those of her children of she doesn’t pay the 50g’s her husband owes. I won’t tell you anymore of the story but this book is delight from start to finish. Bits of humour and great writing makes this a cosy you’ll love to read.
I LOVE TO READ
