Pilgrim's Rest (A Miss Silver Mystery) - Softcover
The two Miss Pilgrims, Columba and Janetta, think it unwise to leave their fine ancestral home, Pilgrim's Rest. When their brother suffers a fatal fall only days after talking about selling it, and his son, Major Roger Pilgrim, barely escapes two nearly fatal "accidents, " they suspect it deadly to leave. Thank goodness Miss Silver has come for a visit. Surely, her insight and intelligent observations will determine just why the house hates to be empty.

About the Author:
Patricia Wentworth (1878 1961) was one of the masters of classic English mystery writing. Born in India as Dora Amy Elles, she began writing after the death of her first husband, publishing her first novel in 1910. In the 1920s, she introduced the character who would make her famous: Miss Maud Silver, the former governess whose stout figure, fondness for Tennyson, and passion for knitting served to disguise a keen intellect. Along with Agatha Christie s Miss Marple, Miss Silver is the definitive embodiment of the English style of cozy mysteries.
