Book Reviews of Aunt Dimity: Vampire Hunter (Aunt Dimity)

Book Review: Aunt Dimity series is the BEST!
Summary: 5 Stars

Do you believe in vampires? Well, Lori's twins think they saw one up on the hill and now she's frantic to find out if it's true! She and her friend Kit investigate the history of some strange neighbors who just might be hiding someone up in their attic. As they get to know more about the past, they meet numerous people that all were involved in a mysterious event that occulted more that forty years ago. When the story of that day finally comes out, no one realizes how close to home someone will be affected.

I really enjoyed this book. The story grabs you from the start and you know another good adventure is ahead for Lori. The author adds every day life events and mixes in some mystery, that makes you want to keep reading to the very end to solve it!

Nancy Atherton has done it again with her thirteenth book in the `Aunt Dimity' series. I never get tired of this series about Lori Shephard and the situations she finds herself in. She always comes back to opening her blue book and waiting for Aunt Dimity to speak (or actually write to her from the other side), so she can talk to her about her adventures and get advice.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone that wants a good, easy and enjoyable adventure to read. Also, I would read the rest of the series too!
This is one series that will bring a smile to your face and a good feeling after every book!

Summary of Aunt Dimity: Vampire Hunter (Aunt Dimity)

The original paranormal detective returns in the latest installment of a beloved mystery series

Lori Shepherd?s life in England couldn?t be more tranquil or more satisfying? except for one thing. Her five- year-old twins have started school, and Lori fears they?ll catch everything from the flu to fleas. What they do come home with, however, is worse: a report of a pale, cloaked figure with bloodstained lips lurking in the woods.

Lori is skeptical at first but soon grows concerned enough to consult with her late (but not entirely departed) Aunt Dimity and her dear friend Kit Smith. The vampire-hunting trail leads to Leo, a charismatic vagabond who just returned to England after a self-imposed exile, a bitter old crone named Lizzie Black, and finally to Aldercot Hall, where a mysterious murder took place forty years ago. With Kit and Aunt Dimity?s help, Lori uncovers the secret that will shock everyone?including herself?about the true identity of the twins? vampire.

With its placid English countryside setting, eccentric characters, and lighthearted charm, Atherton?s newest novel will enchant cozy mystery aficionados and the many loyal readers of the Aunt Dimity series.
