The books in this series never fail to please. The tongue=in-cheek humor and unique characters set the books apart from other cozy mysteries. Yes, Lady Hardcastle and Flo are a bit over the top but they are still engaging and the pace of the prose helps to lighten the atmosphere. Look forward to reading the next one !

This perfectly captures how I imagine England in 1911! The characters are vividly described and the dialogue suits the story so well. The mystery itself is a sound plot which holds the reader’s attention from first page to last. This is a good traditional mystery which will please fans of Agatha Christie and the Miss Fisher mysteries. .
