Publisher's summary

Imagine Agatha Christie crossed with Murder, She Wrote . . .

England, December 1927.

In this light, humorous cozy mystery, arrogant Edward Linton has returned from years of living in Paris. But has he changed? Because, if not, the consequences for him might be deadly.

When Mrs. Kate Forbes and her academically minded niece, Lady Jane Scott. are invited to a gathering at Linton Hall, the last thing they expect is to become amateur sleuths pitting their wits against Inspector Ridley of Scotland Yard to solve a shocking murder.

Faced with an ensemble of social climbers, eccentrics, and schemers, our daring duo must untangle a web of secrets, lies and deceit if they're to discover whodunnit.

Join Mrs. Forbes and Lady Jane in a classic mystery with plenty of humor and intrigue. Perfect for Miss Marple and Jessica Fletcher fans who enjoy a light cozy mystery.

meh

Murder Most English is bland and predictable. I returned it and won't get another book in this series.

A bit slow

Entertaining enough to listen to during housework, but a bit repetitive, cliched, tedious, with an overemphasis on period etiquette & speech patterns instead of character development.

Not worth my time

The story was ok, not great just ok, but the narrator was not. Won’t get anymore in the series.

Country House Murder

I was kept guessing until the great reveal. That rarely happens. I did not care for the narrator, as she added a k to words with an -ing suffix, and her male voices were shrill. I will purchase the next book in the series, a comfy, cozy read.
