Goodreads Review of The Death of Mrs. Westaway

"On a day that begins like any other, Hal receives a mysterious letter bequeathing her a substantial inheritance. She realizes very quickly that the letter was sent to the wrong person—but also that the cold-reading skills she’s honed as a tarot card reader might help her claim the money.

Soon, Hal finds herself at the funeral of the deceased…where it dawns on her that there is something very, very wrong about this strange situation and the inheritance at the centre of it."

Hi Roy... yet another stunning dahlia... the color is amazing! I know I've read a book by this author, but for the life of me can't remember which one.

Roy, I am still catching up on all my books I am behind:) I made a resolution that I will not buy a book this year, instead read the ones that are at home:)) so with that said I am doing pretty good in six months I managed to only buy one book and read about five and half way through my sixth.. so this one will have to be in the future:)Endre

Most of our books come from the library and as gifts from friends. I try to read a minimum of a book each week. We do have lots of books that we have not read and our bookcases are full!

Roy that is fantastic one book a week, I have a client who is like you, funny part is he does read some heavy books not like me with the type of spy fiction or just plain fiction genre:)Endre
