Miss Seeton Goes to Bat
English
By (author): Hamilton Crane Heron Carvic
Its summertime in Plummergen and cricket madness has overtaken Miss Emily Seetons pretty village. The pavilion urgently needs repairs, but theres a needle match coming up against arch rivals Murreystone. Miss Ss chums Sir George Colveston and his son Nigel talk of little else, especially as the oppositions demon bowler wrought havoc at last years game, while their own star, the village blacksmith, has a broken arm after a dispute with a mysteriously tipsy Shire horse.
Miss Ss artistic talents are required to sketch the players and raise money for the pavilion she knows little of cricket, but her uncanny depictions point the way to a burglarious gang whove been robbing local villages.
Serene amidst every kind of skulduggery, this eccentric English spinster steps in where Scotland Yard stumbles, armed with nothing more than her sketchpad and umbrella!
