Summary
Suspicious goings-on at a retirement home lead to an intriguing investigation in Date with Malice, the second cosy crime novel in Julia Chapman's Dales Detective series. Perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club and M.C. Beaton.
It’s dark in the Dales this winter . . .
When Mrs Shepherd arrives at the Dales Detective Agency, quite convinced that someone is trying to kill her, Samson O’Brien dismisses her fears as the ramblings of a confused elderly lady. But after a series of disturbing incidents at Fellside Court retirement home, he begins to wonder if there is something to her claims after all . . .
With Christmas around the corner, Samson is thrown into a complex investigation. One that will require him to regain the trust of the Dales community. Faced with no choice, he enlists the help of a local – the tempestuous Delilah Metcalfe.
Against the backdrop of a Yorkshire winter, Samson and Delilah must work together once again if they are to uncover the malevolence threatening the elderly residents of Bruncliffe.
Could the danger be perilously close to home?
Filled with wit, warmth and a cast of charming characters, continue the crime capers with Date with Mystery.

A date with good company
Enjoyed the second book in the series as much as the first. Twist in the plot leaves you looking forward to the next book - keep them coming. The description of the Dales transports you there.

Love this series of mysteries
Am so enjoying these books. Always a good mystery to be solved and I never seem to guess who the bad guy is! I am already downloading the next in the series to see how the relationships of the characters evolve and to find out more about Samson’s past.
