I'll try to get it out this week. It's a good book! <br /><br />I was planning to do Dead in the Morning as the next Yorke, lol. Got a copy of the British first a while back. Barzun said the motive for murdering a good cook cook was ludicrous, as I recollect, but it looks pretty classic in form at least.The Passing Tramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830680639601570152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-50734754128155696452018-06-08T09:35:02.526-07:002018-06-08T09:35:02.526-07:00Damn!

Once again you "scooped" me on a writer very overlooked by the vintage mystery bloggers. Ah well... This won't stop me from my own investigations of her books. I think I'd prefer her books without Dr. Grant they sound very much like Minette Walters and Rendell style books. But DEAD IN THE MORNING turned up first and was dirt cheap.<br /><br />BTW, what happened to your post on DEATH OF A STRAY CAT? You asked me not to include it in my future Jean Potts posts (two more coming soon!) and I thought by now -- more than a month since we last saw each other -- it would've turned up on your blog.<br />J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137677673775151256.post-31938088795791833812018-06-08T05:45:00.593-07:002018-06-08T05:45:00.593-07:00I've picked up a dozen Yorke mysteries over th...I've picked up a dozen Yorke mysteries over the years.
