Absolutely great story and steeped in the time and places it is set in, language and all. Humour without whimsy and rather dark. Just brilliant. I twigged early on where Springwell really is, but I was delighted to be completely surprised by the last twist in the tail!

Even better the second time, especially as I had completely forgotten what the last twist could be! Upgrading to 5 stars. The different voices are well handled but the main voice - Corney Sage - comes across as such a complex living person that by then my emotions were invested heavily and I was completely taken up by the last feverish, dreamy, rushing passages.

Obviously I know Springwell/Matlock Bath but I'm guessing Abbotswelford is Abbots Langley. Burdon Oaks is more of a puzzle.... Church Stretton? and New Clay I like to think is Clay Cross. Anyway LOVE it.

A World of Kindness sends a message to kids about how kindness and consideration towards others is what they should offer. This book gives examples on how to use manners and different methods to approach others. How to be a good friend, or how to kindly tell someone goodbye. “Be respectful towards others and others will do so towards you.”

Un policier sans policier, mais dans une ambiance glauque-victorienne... De l'idée mais pas de souffle.
