Murder at Bewley Manor
(2015)(The sixth book in the Penny Detective series)
A novel by John Tallon Jones
Introducing the Penny Detective 6 Bumbling madcap detective Morris Shannon is stranded without his sidekick Shoddy, on an island off the coast of North Wales, in this classic country house whodunit.
What starts off as an innocent murder mystery game goes terribly wrong, and it is up to Morris to find out who the real murderer is.
WARNING: Here comes the hard sell Fans of intellectual literature should look away now, or try something more classical. All Penny Detective books contain no messages, big words or complicated plots, but they will, hopefully, while away a couple of hours and entertain. If you are still not convinced; the terrific thing about Amazon is that you can read the first couple of chapters for free. Believe me; these books don't get any better or worse after that.
John Tallon Jones is to literary intellectuals what John Milton (Paradise Lost) was, to having a 'good laugh.' This is disposable fiction at the sharp end, nothing more.
What people are sayingThe good 'Take Hercule Poirot, Philip Marlowe, and Miss Marple and roll them into one, and you have The Penny Detective. A highly imaginative and entertaining five star read.' Post Online
