Aunt Dimity's Good Deed by Nancy Atherton review

The third in the Aunt Dimity series is Aunt Dimity's Good Deed, published in 1998.  I had previously read this one, but didn't realize it until I was a little way into the book. While Lori wasn't the main character in the second book of the series, Lori appears in this book, now married to Bill Willis, who is an overworked lawyer.  She plans a second honeymoon to England, planning to stay in Aunt Dimity's cottage with Bill, but at the last minute Bill is unable to leave due to work pressures.  In his place, his father accompanies her.

One day, Lori's father-in-law disappears, taking her childhood stuffed bunny with him and leaving a strange note.  Aunt Dimity leaves a clue in her diary, and Lori and her young next door neighbor, Nell (who happens to be the now 12 year old stepdaughter of Emma Porter from the second book), take off on the trail to find Lori's missing father-in-law.  Once again, the book is interesting, with a little supernatural help from Aunt Dimity, a bit of romance and an interesting mystery!

This is part of my 2014 Read It Again Sam Challenge.
