The Mydworth Mystries Series has become a go-to cozy book series for me. I enjoy some instalments more or less but it's still always a fun time to spend unravelling a crime with Lord & Lady Mydworth.

Great reading

Another enjoyable read from Costello and Richards. They do write some really good short stories. Their Cherringham and Mydworth mysteries are different yet the same. If you were to use a food equivalent it would be like something having the same flavour, but a different taste!

Fast-paced mystery with twists and turns

This story has great movement with murder, weather conditions, lying, and trains. Every chapter had new twists and turns that kept me reading into the night.

I love the stories, I wish they were longer, developing the story and characters more. I anticipate each release and hate for the story to be finished in a few hours.

Slightly disappointed with this offering, very short and not very detailed, might be a case of fulfilling their quota

Lukijana Nathaniel Parker.
Juonikuvio oli kekseliäs. Menin välillä sekaisinkin siitä, mutta kyllähän tämä oli viihdyttävä.

Som tidigare delar innehåller denna spänning, humor och de suveränt trevliga sir Harry och hans fru Kat.
Och Nathaniel Parkers underbara röst. 😍
