As frequent readers know, I
especially enjoy mysteries set in England and just finished A Death
in the Dales by Frances
Brody which was released earlier this month. That’s the latest entry (#7) in the Kate
Shackleton mystery series which is set in 1920s England. This time, private detective Kate is planning
to take a fortnight holiday with her niece in the rural village of Langcliffe.
They soon learn of a case
from the previous decade where the wrong man may have been convicted. Somehow combining that quest with a newly missing
boy and a suspicious farmer’s death, Kate has plenty of questioning to do. The
quiet country setting was fun to envision and the multiple story lines had me
guessing up until the end. Read these
cozy mysteries by Frances Brody especially if you like others from a similar period by Jacqueline Winspear
or Charles Todd.
