Through Dancing Poppies: Miss Gascoigne mysteries book 3: an intriguing cosy mystery set in the swinging 1960s

Poppy Bell is a teenage singing sensation about to ‘hit the big time’ and newly engaged to a man old enough to be her father. Everyone says she’s a gold digger. But then…

Dee Gascoigne, now a fully-fledged—or nearly fully-fledged—private investigator working for the law firm of Montague Montague, meets Poppy a couple of times and can’t help but notice she is a very talented musician who is young, naive and on the brink of something incredible. But she is also surrounded by people who know exactly what they are doing, they’ve done this kind of thing before, are used to the spotlight and the glare of media sensationalism, and know how to present the perfect image to grow a very public career. Then there’s a near miss in a car park, and suddenly Dee has an intense feeling of danger lurking in the shadows. But who is the target? Poppy or her new fiancé, wealthy entrepreneur Teddy Reynolds?

Excerpt

Prologue
June 1965
The spotlight picked out a plain wooden chair, and beside it, a microphone on its stand. Beyond that soft pool of illumination, the stage was in darkness. There came the sound of eager footsteps, then a young woman, barely more than a girl, stepped
into the halo of light and sat down, settling herself on the chair with a guitar on her knee.

The guitar seemed far too big for her, but she hugged her thin arms about it, leaning her cheek forward to rest on the curve of the honey-coloured wood. As she did so, her hair fell forward, a smooth shining wall between her and the camera.

From this angle all that could be seen was the hair, softly golden, her right cheek, and a half-closed eye fringed by thick fair lashes.
‘And what’s your name, sweetheart?’ The man in the front row called to her.

‘Poppy.’

He put a tick next to her name on his list. ‘Right then, sweetheart, when you’re ready…’

She began to strum the guitar, and after a few bars, still in that pensive, almost meditative pose, she began to sing.

It was an old song, old before her grandmother was born, let alone her mother. A song of wistful remembrance of a brief love now lost. A song to give the listener goosebumps.

For two and a half minutes the girl sang her song. Only her hands and her mouth moved, the rest of her might have been carved from marble. There was not a sound in the studio. The camera remained fixed on her, neither panning out for a wide shot, nor closing in to intrude upon her face. At the end of the two and a half minutes, she
stopped the song on a softly held note, her fingers stilling at the strings of her guitar.

Silence surrounded her.

When the man’s voice spoke again, she lifted her head.

‘Well, Poppy my dear, that was very nice. Very nice indeed. Perhaps you’ll go back outside and wait to have a chat with us in a few minutes?’

She nodded, picked up her guitar, and returned to the corridor.

‘Well?’ The man turned to someone near him, someone who had been silent so far. ‘What do you think?’

‘Just what we are looking for, I should say.’ The second man paused then added, ‘Of course those awful trousers will have to go. And is that a man’s sweater she’s got on?’

‘Looked like it. I’m thinking one of those little white frocks. Keep the makeup and hair simple, we go for the ingenue look. The audiences lap that up. She looks very young, though. She is eighteen, I take it?’

‘Not quite. Not for another eight months, from what it says here.’
‘Hmm. Well, if you don’t say anything, I won’t. We might even save ourselves some money. Right, are there any more?’

‘No, she was the last.’

‘And the best, I reckon. This is the break I’ve been waiting for. We could hit the jackpot with this one.’

‘I’d say so.’

‘Just follow my lead, won’t you? Go along with anything I say.’

‘Don’t I always? Hey, Dave, turn that camera off now. We’ve finished.’

‘Yes, Mr Reynolds,’ called Dave, and he turned off the camera, then the microphones.

About the Author

Poppies, Poppy

Caron lives in Derbyshire, England, where Jane Austen’s Mr Darcy came from. She hasn’t met him yet, but nevertheless clings to the dream. She writes mysteries and crime but sometimes adds in a little dash of romance or fantasy.

Like many writers, Caron always wanted to write stories. She can remember announcing this to her mother when she was eight years old. Caron says, ‘I seem to remember she wasn’t overly impressed.’

Caron started reading adventure stories and mysteries for children when she was around 7 or 8 and graduated to Agatha Christie and Patricia Wentworth (her faves) when around 9 or 10. She has never looked back.

Caron has tried writing literary fiction – she was terrible at it. She has tried writing romance but got bored and killed everyone off. So now she sticks to what she loves – murder mysteries. The Dottie Manderson mysteries are set in the 1930s and feature a terminally-nosy well-to-do young woman, the Miss Gascoigne mysteries are set in the 1960s and a spin-off from the Dottie books, and the Friendship Can Be Murder series are set ‘now’ and written as diary entries by a posh woman, Cressida Barker-Powell, who plans to make the world a better place by getting rid of bad people, starting with her mother-in-law.

Mysteries of Ravenfield by N.D. Thompson

April 13, 2026 Melanie 1 Comment

Another new-to-me author is in the spotlight today. N.D. Thompson’s Mysteries of Ravenfield is the book I’m reviewing.

Ravenfield

Blurb

Ten standalone mysteries. One haunting conspiracy.

Welcome to Ravenfield, a quiet Yorkshire town surrounded by endless moorland. To outsiders, it is peaceful. To those who live there, it is haunted by secrets.

Rachel Cooper, a young police officer, arrives determined to solve her father’s unsolved murder — even if it costs her career. Her only lead points to Ravenfield, but what she finds is far stranger than she imagined. Paranormal investigator Chris Silversmith has spent his life studying the town’s unexplained phenomena, and he believes those mysteries are tied to Rachel’s father’s death.

Together with Rachel’s sceptical partner, Chris’s loyal friend, and a woman who can speak to the dead, they form an unlikely alliance to uncover Ravenfield’s truth. But the deeper they dig, the more dangerous their search becomes. Watching from the shadows is The Management — a clandestine group determined to keep Ravenfield’s secrets buried forever.

Told across ten chilling episodes, each a standalone mystery yet bound together by a dark overarching conspiracy, Book One of The Ravenfield Chronicles launches a gripping saga of murder, mystery, and supernatural horror — where uncovering the truth may cost more than your life.

Ravenfield

My Review

Weird. But in a good way. Ravenfield is no ordinary town in Yorkshire, England.

It has a supernatural element which can be in your face or subtly lurking in the background.

Written as what could be called a collection of short stories, all the mysteries tie together to the strange and dangerous goings on in Ravenfield.

The author has a great way with words, and the characters have a chemistry which makes them work well together.

Sister Olive Wouldn’t Hurt A Fly by Gill Calvin Thomas

March 27, 2026 Melanie 2 Comments

Today, on Celtic Connexions, I’m reviewing Sister Olive Wouldn’t Hurt A Fly by Gill Calvin Thomas.

Sister Olive

Blurb

If this whole saga was a fight between good and evil, then who had won? As far as Miriam could work out, neither good nor evil had triumphed yet. Now she was having to confront the grim consequences of Will’s behaviour, and she was mortally afraid. Maybe he and his darkness would win after all.

The tragic suicide of a young student starts a shocking chain of events for William Marshall, his wife Miriam and their son, Ollie. As Will descends into madness, a ghostly presence appears in their old house to protect Ollie. However, when two strangers threaten Miriam and an attempt is made to snatch Ollie, mother and son are forced to flee.

Amidst ever-present danger, they shake off pursuers to seek sanctuary in Rock House in Dorset, where they meet Caitlin and her friends. Twenty years have passed since Charlie Bond helped Caitlin solve the mystery of her mother’s death. Now, it is the turn of Charlie’s sidekick, Sam Haskell, to investigate a mysterious cult and unmask a killer.

My Review

This book started slowly, then took off at warp speed. Just as quickly, it slowed down again. It was like it was playing cat-and-mouse with me.

The author is an excellent writer, and her characters were well-developed. Sister Olive is one of those characters you love to hate. I think my favourite characters, though, were Henry and Ollie.

I found the end a bit flat and left me with some unanswered questions, but other than that, it was a good read.

About the Author

Sister Olive

Gill Calvin Thomas has retired from academic life and lives with her husband in Swanage, Dorset. She finds inspiration while walking in the Isle of Purbeck. Here, she is able to escape into a world of her own making, getting to know her characters, whilst she plans the next twist and turn of the plot.

As writing has become a major part of Gill’s life, she has withdrawn from taking a leading role in many community volunteer activities, although she has retained her interest in local and national politics. A lifelong feminist, Gill likes nothing better than a spirited debate on the issues of the day with family and friends. As her writing career develops, she hopes to explore those issues in her stories.

Deep Swimmers by Richard Robinson #DEEPSWIMMERS

March 22, 2026 Melanie 2 Comments

I’m pleased to welcome Richard Robinson back to Celtic Connexions with his fourth book in his Topaz Files series, Deep Swimmers.

Deep Swimmers

Blurb

Belfast, 1995. When an elderly couple fall to their deaths from the city’s notorious Ashton Tower, the incident is quickly ruled a suicide. For most, it’s a tragedy. For British Intelligence, it’s the beginning of something far more dangerous.

Jones and Jenny, now seasoned members of MI5’s Young Communicators Unit, find themselves pulled into an investigation that reaches back to the Second World War. The case sees Jones return home to Suffolk, where he must handle a homeless republican veteran still hiding from something.

What begins as a routine inquiry soon exposes buried loyalties, forgotten operations, and a web of deception that comes to an extraordinary conclusion.

As police investigators, MI5 officers, and retired spymasters circle the truth, a Mossad agent opens old wounds. Someone is determined to keep the past buried, no matter the cost.
Set against the tense backdrop of 1990s Northern Ireland, Deep Swimmers is a gripping espionage thriller about the deadly legacy of covert lives and the price of keeping secrets.

Some falls are accidents. But hiding from the truth is a deadly game.

Interview with Richard

How did you get started writing?

I’m a trained journalist and have written for as long as I can remember. I enjoy creating new landscapes with words and trying to fill them with colourful people. One of my earliest memories is standing up and reading a story I created at primary school. However, the notion of writing a novel never really hit me until I needed to rethink my life. I lost my father in October 2020 and needed something to throw myself into, to divert my brain away from that pain. Hence, after only eight months, Topaz was born. It was a form of escapism that continues to this day.

What drew you to write a novel

I think the turmoil of losing a loved one led me to want to temporarily live in a different universe, that I could shape and hone. In the past, when I needed space or to reset, I’d disappeared to Northern Ireland and I’d previously spent time living near Belfast in the 1990s. But more recently, I decided to build that new universe in my head, on paper and then add interesting dimensions. That’s not to say I hadn’t attempted novels in the past, I did once in the early 2000s (which became The Mainstay) but I only really ploughed on with Topaz in 2022 and 2023.

Fast forward to Deep Swimmers – book four. Where did the inspiration for that come from?

All good authors challenge their main protagonist and Jones has really been put through his paces in Deep Swimmers, after only just surviving Wild Flowers! Deep Swimmers was born out of an idea that everyone lives within the shadow of Divis Tower in Belfast. I’ve called it Ashton Tower in the book. That shadow meant the British Army had to helicopter onto the roof and it was a microcosm of the city. The two older people that fell from the tower allowed me to delve deeper into that community, the residents and the feeling of the time. Likewise, Jones being called home to care for his ailing mother gave me a chance to talk about Suffolk, where I grew up. And finally, the third strand was he real life story of Operation Green and the IRA links to Nazi Germany, which I found fascinating. That all came together and I was delighted that I was able to make it work. The reviews happily suggest that people enjoyed watching those strands come together.

Which writers past or present have influenced your style of writing?

I studied English Literature and have always enjoyed the classics, I like to delve into a character irrespective of the era or genre and try to get under their skin. I enjoyed reading Thomas Hardy and D.H. Lawrence. However, it was John Le Carre, Len Deighton and Ian Fleming that inspired me to look into thriller and espionage fiction. The only tweak I needed for my own style was to remove to machismo element and perhaps look at the flaws, weaknesses and humour of the main protagonists.

So, my style is somewhere between the humour of Andrew Cartmel (Vinyl Detective) and the spy thriller fiction of Charles Cumming.

There are many interesting characters in your Novel, do you have a particular favourite one?

There is a character called Declan McNally, a Derry man, who is a grizzled former spy and in Topaz becomes part of the management team at Milton College. I’ve enjoyed seeing his character change from a rather forlorn and frustrated man, to a reinvigorated and re-energised operative. He seems to get his inspiration from the youngsters on the team and discovers his humour whilst holding onto his little quirks. I enjoyed seeing him develop. He is the main protagonist in a new book called German Bite, which should be published later in 2026.

Do you see any of your characters personality in yourself and vice versa?

Both Jones and Jenny Richmond have my humour, challenges and traits in abundance. But neither are based on me. Jenny’s imposter syndrome, Jones’ struggle with his unique set of skills and even how their relationship blossoms due to their need for mutual support and care in a challenging context, reflects my own experiences in life. But Jones and Jenny are braver and more intelligent than I’ll ever be!

If you had the opportunity to write a novel with any writer alive or dead, who would it be and why?

In his books, Ian Fleming used to understand the technical detail behind every piece of equipment, the geography of every landscape and even the cuisine of every location. John Le Carre added the layers of emotion and feeling that brought his characters to life without being prescriptive to the reader. With that in mind, I’d probably want to meet those two incredible authors in a bar somewhere and craft a story together.

SHADOWS THROUGH TIME UNRAVELS A HAUNTING LEGACY WHERE PAST AND PRESENT COLLIDE
Melanie Robertson-King delivers a suspenseful time-bending mystery in the third installment of the Through Time series.

Brockville, ON – In SHADOWS THROUGH TIME: Through Time Book 3, author Melanie Robertson-King deepens her acclaimed series with a gripping blend of historical intrigue and supernatural suspense. As forgotten codes surface and long-buried secrets stir, the novel draws readers into a world where echoes of the past refuse to remain silent.

When Nicole and Mitch uncover strange symbols carved into wooden beams, what first appears to be a curiosity quickly transforms into a mystery with far-reaching consequences. Their search for answers leads them to Elias Greaves, a 19th-century builder whose legacy stretches from Brighton to Kingston. As they piece together fragments of journals and confront unsettling discoveries within aging walls, it becomes clear that Greaves left behind more than craftsmanship. He left a hidden truth.

Robertson-King masterfully interweaves past and present, revealing how choices made generations earlier continue to shape the living. Through journals, structural collapse, and ghostly whispers that seem to echo from the very foundations of the house, the story uncovers the emotional and moral cost of secrets preserved too long. Each revelation brings Nicole and Mitch closer to understanding what Greaves tried to protect and what forces now seek to expose.

SHADOWS THROUGH TIME explores themes of memory, legacy, and the burden of hidden knowledge. The novel balances atmospheric tension with carefully researched historical detail, creating a narrative that feels both intimate and expansive.

As part of the Through Time series, this third installment builds upon the emotional and supernatural threads established in earlier books while standing firmly on its own. Robertson-Kinginvitesbothlongtimefansandnewreaderstostepintoaworldwherehistorylingersinquietcornersandtruthdemandstobeuncovered.

Death by the Dozen by D.B. Borton

February 23, 2026 Melanie 3 Comments

Today at Celtic Connexions, I’m reviewing Death by the Dozen by D.B. Borton. This is the second of her novels I’ve had the pleasure of featuring here.

Death

Blurb

A curious case of a disappearing pig. A murdered historian. A sassy senior sleuth. If Cat Caliban’s not your favorite crime-solving grandma, you just haven’t met her yet!

Meet Cat Caliban — sixty-something widow, proud cat lady, and budding private eye. She’s traded in her old life as a housewife for something far more exciting: solving crimes.

But nothing in her sleuthing career has prepared her for this.

When a local historian begs Cat to find the villain who stole her beloved pig — Gertie, a cupcake-loving micro-mini with a mischievous streak — Cat figures it’s a simple petnapping. Sorry, pignapping. Until the trail leads to a dead human body.

With the city gearing up for its bicentennial celebrations, Cat finds herself tangled up in a complex mystery involving missing historical papers, a children’s book about a detective with trotters . . . and a cunning killer who’s determined to keep the past buried.

Cat must crack the case, bring home the bacon, and catch a murderer, before she becomes the next victim of Cincinnati’s deadliest – and oinkiest – celebration.

My Review

Cat Caliban is a hoot! When I read Eleven Hours to Murder, I wasn’t sure what to make of Cat. Now that I know her better, I love her, her friends, and her detective partner, Moses.

Set in Cincinnati, Ohio, the case Cat has taken on isn’t what one would call usual. It starts out with a pig-napping and ends with a murder.

Cat is in the throes of seasonal allergies, and when she’s at a function early in the book, the author’s descriptions of the poor woman’s stuffed sinuses cracked me up. I can sympathize because I, too, suffer from seasonal allergies.

Now, it’s up to Cat and Moses to search for the culprit(s). This book had me turning the virtual pages from the get-go.

If another book comes my way, you bet I’ll get myself on that tour.

Decoy by Christopher C Tubbs

February 9, 2026 Melanie 2 Comments

Today at Celtic Connexions, I’m reviewing Decoy by Christopher C. Tubbs, another new-to-me author.

Decoy

Blurb

1941 Europe.

The Nazis have taken northern Europe, borders are sealed, until one heavily disguised trawler, a decoy ship, finds a way in.

Tommy Keelson was a smuggler long before MI6 recruited him for the war effort.

Now he commands The Sarah — a German-built trawler refitted with hidden guns and covert equipment. It’s a lethal decoy built to slip through occupied waters and fool the enemy.

From Saint-Nazaire to Honfleur, Tommy’s missions grow deadlier by the week. But his next mission will be his most dangerous yet.

He must rescue a captured MI6 agent who’s trapped deep in occupied France.

Tommy and three Free French commandos slip into Paris, strike the Gestapo’s headquarters and pull her out.

But their escape erupts into a firefight along the Seine — ending in an explosion that sends Tommy overboard, presumed dead.

Now wounded and trapped behind enemy lines, Tommy must fight his way to safety and back to England where Germans forces are closing in on all sides.

My Review

I jumped at the chance to read Christopher’s novel, Decoy. First of all, it’s set in a time period that’s important to me. My father fought during WWII but never spoke about his time overseas. I found out long after he passed away that he was able to get leave to go from mainland Europe to his youngest brother’s wedding in Scotland.

Back to the book. Christopher’s style pulled me in immediately. He turned a tragic event into a story without going into too much detail. Yes, there was violence. Some might say it was gratuitous. But, that’s what happens in a war. Young men go off to fight. Some never return. And some of those who do are never the same again.

The swashbuckling story, Tommy operating a Decoy boat to protect the fleet and cause general mayhem to keep the Germans on their toes, was an interesting read.

Actual events were included, as were actual people. That’s what really brought it to life for me.

Even though this is the fourth book in Christopher’s series, it reads quite well as a standalone.

About the author

Decoy
