Description



About the Book



The third volume of the Elliot Todd Mysteries following The Shakespeare Thief and Roman Holiday.



Book Synopsis



Following his earlier adventures in Rome, Elliot Todd finds himself in possession of an early edition of The Lyrical Ballads by Wordsworth and Coleridge, the seminal work of literature often identified as the origin of the Romantic Movement. He decides to donate the book to The Coleridge Society in Somerset by way of a walk along the Coleridge Way. It is a revelatory experience but things take an unexpected and menacing turn both for himself and his mother - who just happens to be in the area researching her dissertation in religious cults as a mature student. This is the third volume of the Elliot Todd Mysteries following The Shakespeare Thief and Roman Holiday.



Review Quotes




Another captivating story from the Elliot Todd mystery series, told with style, warmth and wit. Meticulously researched and rich in detail, Somerset Odyssey is also a celebration of the poetry of Samuel Coleridge, and of the landscape he inhabited and walked. Wonderful. Elizabeth Delo, author of Becoming Liz Taylor.

Fascinating journey in the footsteps of Samuel Taylor Coleridge as bookseller Elliot Todd seeks to solve a literary mystery. Debbie Young, author of The Curiosity Shop Cosy Mysteries and The Sophie Sayers Village Mysteries.

Rejoin Elliot Todd' s genial company as he first goes on a literary odyssey in Coleridge's footsteps and then investigates his mother's questionable involvement in an organisation as part of her university studies on religious cults. His best yet. A very enjoyable read. Tim Pears, author of In the Place of Fallen Leaves and the West Country Trilogy.
