First one I've read of the Eleanor Roosevelt mystery series. Offers a good historic view of the time period when FDR was in the White House and who was "big" crime during Prohibition. I would call this a cozy murder story since no forensics or medical detail involved. Interesting that author is a relative of the Roosevelts, but shares their faults as well as their accomplishments. An eye opener for me regarding the bedroom doings of FDR as well as Hoover of the FBI
