Publisher's Summary

She keeps house for Inspector Witherspoon...and keeps him on his toes. Everyone's awed by his Scotland Yard successes - but they don't know about his secret weapon. No matter how messy the murder or how dirty the deed, Mrs. Jeffries' polished detection skills are up to the task...proving that behind every great man, there's a woman - and that a crime solver's work is never done.

A two-story killer.

Train enthusiast Francis Humphreys took his last breath while relatives and neighbors visited downstairs. But if everyone was downstairs, who could have stolen into Uncle Francis's study, killed him, and escaped? Mrs. Jeffries will have to lend her downstairs common sense to this upstairs murder mystery.

Wonderful cozy historical mystery

Inspector Witherspoon has a new murder to solve and it is looking like a very complicated one. Can Mrs. Jeffries and the rest of the group help him solve it before something else happens.

This is another wonderful historical cozy mystery by Emily Brightwell starting the quirky, eclectic group of characters from Upper Edmonton. The characters are well crafted and engaging. The mystery is full of surprises, lots of possible suspects, many clues, suspense and danger.
What I like the most is the narrative as it goes from character to character, allowing insight into their insecurities, strengths, emotions, deductive reasoning and motivations. Additionally they work so well as a team and function as a family as they solve a complex mystery.
I recommend this series if you like quirky characters and cozy historical mysteries.
