Trouble In Combe Tollbridge



Trouble In Combe Tollbridge
By Roseanna Hall
Genre:-Humorous fiction/Modern & Contemporary fiction/General & Literary/Family life fiction
Pages:_304
Publisher:-Farrago
Blurb:-Combe Tollbridge, on the Exmoor coast, is a quiet fishing village, always happy to welcome visitors for the sake of the local economy, but when an irritating journalist looks like staying overtime, a dine-and-dash couple plays tricks in the neighbourhood, and a family with more than one secret to hide features in the national news, the mixed blessing that is tourism becomes all too clear.
 Meanwhile Professor Tolliday visits the coastal village for the first time in fifty years with his family. The once irresponsible student has come back to make belated amends, but it is his mischievous little granddaughter whose holiday fun causes the most trouble for the village. Perfect for fans of Hannah Ellis, Rebecca Shaw, Alix Kelso, Tracy Rees, Miss Read, Carola Dunn.
 From the author of the bestselling Miss Seeton mystery series.
 'An entertaining, richly textured novel of village life that lifts the spirits and makes you smile. I loved the characters, learned a lot from their experiences and believed in them as people. I'm moving in as soon as the next cottage is on the market' Peter Lovesey, author of Showstopper.

My Review:-This is Book Two in 'An Exmoor Harbour Tales' series. I had the pleasure of reading and reviewing book one 'Moving To Combe Tollbridge' last year, so when I seen this one I had to give it a read. It's that time of the year when everyone likes to go on holiday and it's no different in Combe Tollbridge. There are a few storylines within this book, from the tourist that have came for the first time to Professor Tolliday who hasn't been for fifty years and brought his family with him. Why has the Professor came back after so long? Not all the storylines have an ending in this book, so I think we might be seeing more about them in book three. 
 I have to say Combe Tollbridge sounds like a place that I would be happy staying at. I'm not one for a lot of people or noise. We go on holiday to the same little Welsh village every year and in the past 15 years nothing much has changed.
