The Mrs Jeffries series of books by Emily Brightwell does not disappoint. I highly recommend this author.

Great series.
This is a good book in the Mrs Jeffries series. It is a shame that they are no longer printing the old books but well worth buying at a reasonable price. There is humour as well as mystery and as usual Mrs Jeffries works out the answer in a logical way
