Reviews
""Ballard complicates the generally heartwarming tone of her gently nostalgic mysteries by dramatizing a shameful episode in the country's history."" - Kirkus Reviews ""There is plenty of period detail... The wartime setting will appeal to a wide range of readers. The strong female characters of all ages are similar in manner to those in Tracy Kiely's Elizabeth Parker mysteries, despite that series being set in a different era."" - Booklist ""Despite her odd name (something the author has no doubt dealt with herself) Dimple is reminiscent of a grown-up Nancy Drew - brave, loyal, and smart. With most men off at war, the book is a tribute to the women who pulled together for the war effort. They ran the machines at the munitions factory, made do with rations, and prayed that the war would return their sons, husbands, and fathers."" - The New York Journal of Books, "Ballard complicates the generally heartwarming tone of her gently nostalgic mysteries by dramatizing a shameful episode in the country's history." - Kirkus Reviews "There is plenty of period detail...

Synopsis
With the country in the midst of World War II, you can be sure that the small town of Elderberry, Georgia, will pull together to find a missing child. And you can be equally certain that first-grade teacher Miss Dimple Kilpatrick will be in the rescue party - especially since Peggy Ashcroft is one of her students. Miss Dimple carves out a search path all her own and, once again, the sharp-as-a-tack teacher is right on point. She finds Peggy in the woods, but the child is too sick to walk and its too difficult for Miss Dimple to navigate the uneven terrain in the dark. Luckily, she comes upon the home of an elderly artist, Mae Martha, and her young companion, Suzy, who help ensure that Peggy returns home safe and sound. A few days later, however, Miss Dimple receives a frantic call from Suzy: Mae Martha has been murdered and Suzy is considered the most likely suspect because her family is Japanese. Miss Dimple and her fellow teachers, Annie and Charlie, dont buy it and set out to prove Suzys innocence, only to discover danger where they least expect it. Quick thinking and loyal to a fault, Miss Dimple is an amateur sleuth who will always stand up for whats right., With the country in the midst of World War II, you can be sure that the small town of Elderberry, Georgia, will pull together to find a missing child.

- i***n (841)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAll good, great to pick these up, arrived today, promptly shipped and exactly as described if not better, very good price a genuine seller. Seems there was an issue with original packaging but fortunately I was using AddressPal rather than eBay international and they repacked it. (As well as saving us from having to pay import duty twice, on prepaid import duty, which is what happens buying from Ireland via eBay) Thank You
