Why read it?
1 author picked Date with Evil as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the seventh book in the Dales Detectives series and, in spite of some of the serious issues covered, is by far the most humorous and action-packed.
What I love about this book is the tremendous sense of community that leaps from the pages and really makes you think about small-town/village life. The quirky characters are all well-drawn and vivid descriptions of wayward sheep, fellside walks and twisty lanes bring the Yorkshire Dales to life.

From Jane's list on UK mysteries that make you think outside the plot.
