Kate Bart is surviving the death of her husband and getting on with her life in a small quiet country town. When her friend’s psychic aunt warns her of dead people in her life, she is in a panic hoping for it not to be true. Still holding on to being alone, she finally lets go of her husband after five years.

Bernard Duchowski, who goes by Dutch, had retired from the police force and moved to Stonington to become a Private Investigator. He has known Kate for a long time and wants them to have a meaningful relationship. While working on a case together, the two of them learn more about how they feel about each other.

Curtains in Stonington was a wonderful suspense story that intrigued me greatly. I was very surprised at the fact that Kate & her mother were actually from England and they stuck to their traditional way of life. With the involvement of the townspeople, it was not hard to figure out who murdered two people and these were the people that the aunt had predicted.

Rosemary Goodwin has written a very talented story of murder and romance that will be the start of more books. The characters range from a very professional person to a widow who is lonely for attention and with all the country people made the town more alive for me. Curtains In Stonington, A Kate Bart Mystery is a great book for those looking for something different to read.
