just as good as the last Mrs. Jeffries. Enjoyable in every way.
I loved this book. I am one of those people that always reads the end (I know it's a bad habit, but I can't help myself). What I like about the Mrs Jefferies books is that even if I read the end, I still want to read the book to see how they figured it out. This one in particular was very memorable. How are they going to figure this out? I kept asking-- but of course they did.
I enjoy cozy mysteries, and Mrs. Jeffries fits the bill. She solves mysteries mainly by brainpower, but also by using her staff to do a lot of running around and research. But her dear inspector gets all the credit for his "method" of solving the mysteries! He is a sweet gentleman, but somehow never suspects that his housekeeper is putting the solution into his head!
