Perfect for you if...

You enjoy historical mysteries with plenty of humour and British charm, where the detective is as entertaining as the case itself.
You love feisty female protagonists who get into scrapes through no fault of their own and talk their way out with wit.
You're an Anglophile who appreciates 1930s London details and the absurdity of the British class system.

Maybe not for you if...

You want gritty, serious crime fiction with procedural depth and gruesome details.
You prefer your heroines hardened by trauma rather than delightfully naive about the darker sides of life.
You're after a standalone; you'd rather not commit to a series.
