Vicky Hill wants nothing more than to get out from behind the obituary desk and jump into the world of investigative journalism, but she just hasn't had her true moment to shine yet, despite her success in helping solve previous murders. When a rash of silver thefts hits Gipping-on-Plym, it's up to Vicky to pull out all of her reporting skills to figure out if the suspects could be the tribe of gypsies that have recently come to town for the annual Morris Dancing festival. And when an unknown woman is found dead, the stakes are raised and the urgency to find out who is causing mayhem in the peaceful town before anyone or anything else turns up missing or dead. In short, it's just the kind of investigation that Vicky knows will make her a household name someday -- at least she hopes so!

Author Hannah Dennison's Vicky Hill Exclusive Mystery series is just delightful, and her latest book, THIEVES, is no exception. This is a fun and adventurous story that readers will thoroughly enjoy. Incorporating the tongue-in- cheek British humor with a shivering good mystery, Dennison delivers a novel that both Monty Python and Miss Marple would approve of. It isn't everyday you find a book filled with Morris Dancers, so when you do, you'd better grab it -- it's a keeper!
