Broken vows…Deception…Betrayal. A roller coaster ride of twists and turns!Cassie Nichols wants a baby. Badly.She’s certain a baby will anchor the crumbling relationship with her husband, Jake, who she suspects is having an affair.But after a miscarriage and continued trouble getting pregnant leads the couple down the frustrating and expensive road of in vitro fertilization, Cassie finds herself running out of time.Pumped on hormones, fueled by anxiety, and believing it is the only way to save her marriage, she does the unthinkable to ensure a viable pregnancy.Now, the happy family she envisioned remains out of reach and is instead wrought with lies, deception, and murder.Readers Favorite?????Review:Misconception by Denise Forsythe is a gripping tale of deception and murder that will leave you wondering what you just read. At its heart, it is a thriller, but it’s also a story about the lengths people will go to get exactly what they want, regardless of who gets in the way. The characters are deeply developed to the extent that you’ll know them inside out by the end of the book. The plot is unique, tightly woven in a narrative that flicks seamlessly between the present and the past. The tension builds slowly, gradually tightening its grip on you, leaving you unable to put it down until the end, each chapter leaving you wanting to read just a little bit more. This is not a fast-paced story, but it does pick up the pace gradually, drawing you into the main character’s web of lies and deceit. A thoroughly enjoyable story, and highly recommended to anyone who loves a good thriller with the ability to hold their attention from start to finish.

1920s gadabout Anty Boisjoly takes on his first case when his Oxford chum is facing the gallows, accused of the murder of his wealthy uncle.Not one but two locked-room murders later, Boisjoly’s pitting his wits and witticisms against a subversive butler, a senile footman, a single-minded detective-inspector, an errant goat, and the eccentric conventions of the pastoral Sussex countryside to untangle a multi-layered mystery of secret bequests, ancient writs, love triangles, revenge, and a teasing twist in the final paragraph.The Case of the Canterfell Codicil is a classic, cosy, locked-room mystery with an improbable plot inspired by Agatha Christie and prose in the style of an homage to PG Wodehouse.Can such a niche pastiche work? Let’s let the readers decide…Part Way Through I Bought the Entire SeriesI got the first book via Kindle Unlimited. I was about a quarter of the way through it and was enjoying it so much that I returned the K. U. copy and purchased all 4 volumes for my permanent library. ??????????Brilliantly wittyYes to the Agatha Christie meets PG Wodehouse comparisons, but it gets even better with a soupcon of Raymond Chandler, Oscar Wilde, and HH Munro added to the mix. ??????????A delight!I just love Anty Boisjoly! Great character, charming voice. The locked room part of the mystery was excellent, very reminiscent of Agatha Christie. ??????????PERFECT cozy mystery, exceeds expectations. Read all of them now!I’m a giant fan of the golden age mystery genre (and also of Wodehouse) and wasn’t expecting a modern writer to be able to pull off the feeling one gets with a Christie, a Sayers, a Marsh, or an Allingham. ??????????Everything You Want in an English Country House MysteryThe plot is more Christie than Wodehouse with multiple mysteries to solve, conflicting motivations, and layers of lies. ??????????Fun and funny…not a dull momentAll the Anty Boisjoly Mysteries are a delight for those of us who still appreciate a good laugh and an over the top twisty/turn-y murder mystery. Great characters, great mysteries, great fun. ??????????Love this series!The author can’t write them fast enough. I have to parcel the books out so I don’t run out. If you are a fan of classic crime fiction and Blackadder these are for you. ??????????
