Following your post on ‘Frozen Charlotte’ last month, I’ve been reading Priscilla Masters’ previous Martha Gunn novel ‘Slipknot’ and must declare myself hooked. The widowed Shrewsbury coroner is a most engaging protagonist and the character-driven story is all too convincing with its very real theme of school bullying and what it may lead to. A griping and thought-provoking read. I shall be on the lookout for Priscilla’s other books now. And the proposed award would definitely yield another trophy for your shelf!<br /><br />Hope you’ve enjoyed your few days off. I’ve just had a break myself, up in Cumbria, visiting my dad at the care home for his 88th birthday. It’s a great feeling, I always find, driving over Shap. No doubt Daniel Kind, Hannah Scarlett and their creator will know exactly what I mean!<br /><br />Regards, PaulPaul Beechnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-74316771793443105152011-04-09T06:15:35.698+01:002011-04-09T06:15:35.698+01:00Congratulations on the Red Herring, very well dese...Congratulations on the Red Herring, very well deserved.lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509400868331534237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-24665397508575491122011-04-07T23:06:26.631+01:002011-04-07T23:06:26.631+01:00Congrats on your award!!!Congrats on your award!!!Toyin O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08429675861306256504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-63312994595462232922011-04-07T20:52:44.662+01:002011-04-07T20:52:44.662+01:00Many Congratulations!

I have loved red herrings ever since I found out what it meant in Sayers´ The Five Red Herrings. <br /><br />I even remember the first time I used it. In a university essay about environment I wrote something about protecting animals of the sea "be it blule whales or red herrings". I got very good marks, but if that was because of my red herrings I don´t know ;)Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-28790816625027199932011-04-06T12:16:22.040+01:002011-04-06T12:16:22.040+01:00Martin - Congratulations on your well-deserved awa...Martin - Congratulations on your well-deserved award!
