Hello Charlotte,

Thanks for your question.

Yes, you could, as each mystery is complete in itself, with no cliff-hangers. However for the full experience I would suggest reading them all, in order! The first three happen to be free at the moment in box set form if you want to give them a try.

Best wishes,

Harriet Smart(less)
Harriet Smart Thank you! Yes, Will Fairfax is coming back - I have a story in mind, but I can't say exactly when. …moreThank you! Yes, Will Fairfax is coming back - I have a story in mind, but I can't say exactly when. (less)

Harriet’s Recent Updates

The Moon, the Stars, and Madame Burova by Ruth Hogan
"I got this from a book club subscription where all the books are a surprise. Didn't look like my style, but the Brighton setting was appealing.

Only made it a few pages in. I don't do seances, ghosts, taking to dead people.

Before Lunch by Angela Thirkell

Clear rating
Superb. Thirkell rarely dissapoints and this one is wonderful. There is deep emotion quietly done (and enough to bring me to tears) as well as a lot of really sharp, funny observation.
