The return of Ellie Haskell

It's been five years since the last in the cozy-ish Ellie Haskell series and fans will be relieved that there is a new book out in April, called 'Withering Heights'.

Author Dorothy Cannell was born in the UK but has been living in the US for many years. No author website that I can find but here's an article about her, from a couple of years ago.

Brief synopsis from amazon.com:
"The formerly plump girl turned Thin Woman may now be happily married and a mother, but she hasnt lost her wit, her weakness for romance, or her knack for landing herself in trouble. With her irreverent sidekick and charwoman, Mrs. Roxie Molloy, at her side, Ellie has not only solved a crime or two, but has read every Gothic romance she can find and has begun introducing a young cousin, Ariel, to the finer points of the genre."
