Críticas:

Nicely told and rather charming, so it should give traditionalists hours of innocent delight * Literary Review * A classic whodunit featuring two very likeable characters . . . A satisfying read riddled with dry Yorkshire humour (and dry stone walls) -- Cath Staincliffe As village murder mysteries go, this clever, witty and realistic series is quite out of the ordinary and strongly recommended -- Crime Review An engaging cast of characters and a cleverly clued puzzle move Chapman's debut to the top of the English village murder list * Kirkus * Great fun -- Carol Drinkwater Chapman delivers on every level in this intriguing murder mystery . . . a big helping of recognisable small town life, a suitably menacing air of malevolence, an undercurrent of suspense, lashings of Yorkshire wit and a seductively simmering relationship between handsome Sansom and the delightful Delilah. * Lancashire Evening Post * A Yorkshire Agatha Raisin * Dalesman * Bags of Yorkshire charm and wit * Northern Echo *

Reseña del editor:

Date with Malice is the second cosy crime novel in Julia Chapman's Dales Detective series. It's dark in the Dales this winter . . . When Mrs Shepherd arrives at the Dales Detective Agency on a December morning, quite convinced that someone is trying to kill her, Samson O'Brien dismisses her fears as the ramblings of a confused elderly lady. But after a series of disturbing incidents at Fellside Court retirement home, he begins to wonder if there is something to her claims after all . . . With Christmas around the corner, Samson is thrown into a complex investigation. One that will require him to regain the trust of the Dales community he turned his back on so long ago. Faced with no choice, he enlists the help of a local - the tempestuous Delilah Metcalfe. Against the backdrop of a Yorkshire winter, Samson and Delilah must work together once again if they are to uncover the malevolence threatening the elderly residents of Bruncliffe. Could the danger be perilously close to home?
