Perfect for you if...

You love 1920s British settings and enjoy watching clever heroines navigate both murder investigations and romantic tension.
You're a fan of Agatha Christie and cosy mysteries that take the puzzle seriously without graphic violence.
You appreciate a series where you've grown attached to the characters and want to see how their relationships develop under pressure.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer standalone mysteries rather than book 6 in an ongoing series where you'll miss character history.
You want fast-paced thrillers with high stakes action. This is character-driven detective work, not edge-of-your-seat suspense.
You're looking for darker, grittier crime fiction. The 'cosy' in cosy mystery means this keeps things relatively genteel.

About this book

England, 1924. Kitty Worthington's detective agency is thriving when her sister sends an urgent summons to Oxford. A young woman has been murdered, and the victim has close ties to Kitty's fiancé, Chief Detective Inspector Robert Crawford. At the inquest, testimony implicates Crawford as the killer. When Kitty urges him to defend himself, he refuses, insisting the truth will prevail on its own. As evidence mounts against him, Kitty launches her own investigation. Working with her team of sleuths, Kitty follows a trail of secrets, lies, conspiracies, and intrigues through Oxford's streets and academic institutions to find the real murderer. The stakes are high: if they fail to uncover the truth, Crawford will hang. This is the sixth book in The Kitty Worthington Mysteries, a 1920s historical cozy mystery set in Oxford academia.
