I enjoyed this Historical Mystery.  Kat Halloway is beginning a new job as a cook in the household of Lord Rankin.  When she discovers the body of the murdered  kitchen helper she sets out to solve the crime.  The characters and historical detail were very well written.  I really enjoyed all the characters.  The mystery was very good with lots of twists and turns.  The partnership between Kat and Daniel is a lot of fun.  Enjoy this upstairs/downstairs murder mystery.

I enjoyed reading this mystery. Meeting two new mystery solvers and a cat who is smarter than our crime solvers were keep you interested from the beginning. Am looking forward to reading another book in this series. This light reading and others in this series will be going into my keeper list.

This is a very well written little mystery. I very much enjoyed the way the author juxtaposed the scenes in relation to what each character is up to at the same time as another character. The plot is very well thought out and the story moves along at a nice pace. I read the book in one sitting, it was that enjoyable.

I loved everything about this book. A great mystery without a lot of unnecessary vulgar language. I was intrigued all the way to the surprise ending.

It was so nice to read a mystery that you didn't know "who done it" until the very end.
I highly recommend this book.

I was lucky enough to win this book on Shelf Awareness and thank them for it.  It's a great little mystery. Josephine Montfort has just lost her father and overhears talk that instead of it being from suicide it is from a murder.  Jo takes it upon herself to find out what is true.  The story takes place in the 1890's, so what is proper for a young women then is very different from today.  Her family expects Jo to marry, have children and settle down.  That isn't what she wants.  During her investigations, she meets a young newspaperman named Eddie.  He agrees to help her to find out the truth about her father's death. I enjoyed following them as they search and finally solve the mystery.  It's a fun read and I recommend it highly.

This was a really good mystery book. I admire the main character and I had a good time reading about her thoughts and feelings, and of course about the different problems she needed to solve. Ill continue reading more books of this series.

I have to say that I enjoyed this book - I'll try not to reveal too much in this review as I don't want to spoil it for others.

It all starts when Simon and his younger sister head off to stay with their grandparents in a small town called Beecher. From the time they arrive Simon starts to see some strange things happening. The more he sees the more suspicious he becomes that there is something strange going on. The mystery builds piece by piece and he soon finds himself smack-bang in the middle of something a lot bigger than just staying with his grandparents over summer. He makes some new friends who help him solve the clues to find the answer, and the truth.

As each piece of this mystery was revealed at different points throughout the story, it kept me guessing and changing my mind along the way.  I liked how there was a mix of an old-style mysterious ghostly presence and the use of modern technology (to which kids of today can relate) in the plot.

This is a great mystery where old deeds come back to haunt those involved. And they could've gotten away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids.

This had a good story line and so many possible suspects, I really enjoyed trying to figure who did it.

I really enjoyed this story.  Stella is a great lead character that I can see becoming a strong voice in the town of Sweet Pepper.  The mystery was nice and complex and I didn't figure it out until almost when Stella did!  Throw in a hunky ghost, some rich relatives, quirky towns people and a cliff-hanger ending, and I was hooked. I am really looking forward to the second book in this series!

A wonderful English mystery.  A body is exhumed and it is found that the old man died of arsenic poisoning administered over a period of time.  Who benefited from his death???  Did someone hate him enough to kill him?  Detectives Lambert and Hook  interview each subject as they piece this mystery together.  I loved following these detectives as they conduct their investigation.  I loved learning about each character including the detectives and their families.  I loved the way this story moved along so smoothly.

 Sometimes I can guess the murderer.  But not this time.  It was a surprise. J M Gregson's use of words paints such a clear picture.  It's like you're right there.
