Hadaway Farm: A Holly Fleet Cosy Mystery (3) (An Amateur Sleuth Crime Series) Paperback – 8 Jan. 2021

Another great book from Shaun. Once you start it is difficult to put down. More twists and turns than a roller coaster at Alton Towers! A must read. Looking forward with great interest to the next one!

The plot is a bit complicated, and I lost track of some of the ins and outs, but there were lots of amusing moments.

Book three of the Holly Fleet Mysteries, and as enjoyable and compelling as the previous two.The Story is a fairly light telling of the traditions and ancient beliefs that are still entrenched in many of the isolated communities of this country, contrasted against the immediacy of modern media and city based society.The delight of Shaun Baines writing is his ability to use words to 'paint' the bleakness and social change of the environment, and lay his ever developing characters over the top, tied with an engaging plot. It is the descriptive abilities of Thomas Hardy and Walter Raymond paired with a pleasant story which moves at pace.If you are new to these books please start at book one. The characters will mean so much more.I look forward to the next Holly Fleet episode.

This is a brilliant read.Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.Great drama and romance with wonderful world building.Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.Recommend reading.I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.

This is the third book in Holly Fleet mystery series, an investigative journalist teams up again with estate hand Callum. This time they're on the case of a clairvoyant's death prediction that threatens not only a grieving widow, but the very fabric of Little Belton, Northumbria itself. Superstition and belief are thematically strong, while the mystery is kept light-hearted, amusing and still compelling with Holly's tightrope walk between haplessness and investigative heroism - no easy feat, but deftly handled by the author. For fans of the cosy mystery genre that enjoy quick, entertaining reads, this one won't disappoint.

I was looking forward to this latest in the Holly Fleet Series, having read all of the previous books with glee, and this one did not disappoint. In my opinion this is by far the best of the series. Full of intriguing plot twists, exceptional descriptions and humour, Hadaway Farm is an unputdownable read.(I gladly received a free copy of this book in return for an unbiased review.)

This latest Holly Fleet mystery is well up to the high standard of Shaun’s previous books in the series. It is full of his wonderful descriptive writing and twists and turns in the plot keeping you guessing until the end. He deserves every success with his writing.

Another excellent read. I don't read books much but this was difficult to put down and I read it in two days. Shaun's words paint vivid pictures and there is always an unexpected twist at the end. Looking forward to book 4!
