Miss Tonks Turns to Crime
This is the second book in the Poor Relation Series and M.C. Beaton did not disappoint. The crazy antics of the poor relations were just an entertaining in this book as the last. The plot was quick and to the point with no dragging. Spinster Miss Tonks has been chosen to steal something from a rich relative so the Poor Relation Hotel may have the funds it desperately needed. Hilarity ensues. Being short, these stories pack a comedic punch and one might even say they end abruptly. As a reader I am grateful when there is another book in the series so I know I’ll be disappointed when I get to the last one. The only thing that really needs to be said about this book is that it is recommended. If you enjoy British humor (or humor period) you will enjoy this series. I definitely recommend listening to them as Davina Porter does an excellent job bringing the story to life. Thumbs up!
