I finished the year by reading a Miss Silver book from Patricia Wentworth - The Chinese Shawl. This was #5 in the series, and an excellent version.

All of Patricia Wentworth's books are in the Public Domain in Canada, and are available for download from FadedPage. (Please only use this link if she is also in the public domain where you are! If you are where she isn't in the public domain, such as all Life+75 countries, you can find excellent versions of these books on Kindle Unlimited or for reasonable prices from your favourite reseller. Or check out your Public Library!)

I highly recommend the Miss Silver books for anyone who enjoys a good English cozy mystery, and especially for fans of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, who very much follows on in the tradition started by Miss Silver.

Having ended the year with Miss Silver, I rather think I'll start the new year with another. Next in the series is Miss Silver Deals With Death.
