About the author
Ann Purser
36 books141 followersAnn Purser lives in the East Midlands, in a small and attractive village which still has a village shop, a garage, pub and church. Here she finds her inspiration for her novels about country life. She has only to do her daily shopping down the High Street to listen to the real life of the village going on around her.
Before turning to fiction, she had a number of different careers, including journalism – she was for six years a columnist in SHE magazine – and art gallery proprietor. Running her own gallery in a 400-year-old barn behind the house, she gained fascinating insights into the characters and relationships of customers wandering around. She had no compunction about eavesdropping, and sharpened up her writer’s skills in weaving plots around strangers who spent sometimes more than an hour in her gallery.
Working in a village school added more grist to the mill, as does singing in the church choir and membership of the Women’s Guild. She reminds herself humbly that Virginia Woolf was President of her local WI…
Six years hard study won her an Open University degree, and when she faltered and threatened to fall by the wayside, writer husband Philip Purser reminded her that he was paying good money for the course. During this period, she wrote two non-fiction books, one for parents of handicapped children (she has a daughter with cerebral palsy) and the other a lighthearted book for schools, on the explosion of popular entertainment in the first forty years of the twentieth century.
Ten years of running the gallery proved to be enough, and while it was very successful she decided to sell. The business moved down the street to another barn and owner, and Pursers stayed on in their house next to the village school – another rich source of material for the stories. Time to start writing novels.
Round Ringford became Ann’s village in a series of six novels, each with a separate story, but featuring the same cast of characters with a few newcomers each time. The list of books gives details of each story, and each features an issue common to all villages in our rural countryside. “Just like our village!” is a frequent comment from Ann’s readers.
Next: the Lois Meade Mysteries, each title reflecting a day of the week. Ann has always loved detective fiction, and determined to make it her next series. So Murder on Monday was born, followed by Terror on Tuesday, and Weeping on Wednesday. The rest of the week follows!
Mornings are set aside for writing, and the rest of the day Ann spends walking the dog, retrieving bantams’ eggs from around the garden, gossiping and taking part in the life of the village. She is never bored!

I really loved this book! The setting is a small countryside village in England, where a woman has just been murdered in her cottage. Although this is called an "Ivy Beasley" book, the four main characters all received attention and I loved them all. Ivy is new to town- having just moved into a home for the elderly that is right in the middle of the village. Her cousin Diedre (a rich widow), new man in town Gus (who has a mysterious past he is trying to hide from) and Roy (an 86 year old lonely man from the retirement home, whose life is reenergized by his new friends) form a detectice agency and go about trying to solve the murder. This book was excellent and I can't wait for the next in the series to be published in May 2011!

The summary calls Ivy Beasley cantankerous. What it doesn't say is that she's cold, rude, and just plain nasty. She'll give Agatha Raisin a run for her money for one of the most blunt characters ever written. Some people love Agatha, but I can't stand her, and I don't like Ivy any better.
I'm not sure why Purser wanted to write a whole book about this woman, but I won't be reading another one. It was just too unpleasant. When I read a book, I have to at least halfway like a main character. Someone might have faults or quirks, but when they're just a hateful old biddy, why bother?

A great new (for me) detective story, in which Ivy Beasley is the central sleuth, in Ann Purser's Lois Meade Mysteries. And what a character, Ivy Beasley is, now residing in assisted living where she partners up with Gus, the mysterious stranger, Roy and Deidre. A great team as the reader will soon discover.
The team decide to call themselves "Enquire Within" and they soon have a job on their hands, solving the mystery of the murdered widow, (Mrs Blake) who had been stabbed in the chest with a bread knife in her home on Hangman's Row. But the plot thickens, there is no shortage of suspects as Mrs Blake was not well liked, and her daughter is a prime suspect.
All sorts of other mysteries and strange twists and turns, keep the "Enquire Within" team on their toes and on the case. Each character adds interest to the story, and there are some comedic elements as they determine to find the murderer, there is human interest, something about assisted living, with a Polish carer featuring, her interactions with Ivy and with Gus add a light touch.
I greatlenjoyed reading this and will be looking out for more books from the same series. I can recommend this as a character driven detective story, and as a light hearted and enjoyable read.

When I’m old enough to live in a retirement home, I hope I get to be an amateur detective too.

I have read and enjoyed the Lois Meade series. This story was very slow and only got somewhat interesting in the last 1/4.
I did like the 4 main characters, and while I'm not compelled to seek out future stories in this series, if I come across one I may give it a read.

A typical Ann Purser cosy mystery, I love them. Ivy Beasley makes the decision to move from her lifelong home in Round Rington to a retirement home, Springfields in Barrington. In some ways it is a good move for Ivy because she will be living close to her cousin Deirdre, most of her old friends have died and at least in Barrington she will have some company but she thinks things will be boring. She is soon proved wrong, to begin with there is the new arrival in the village, Gus Halfhide, he has moved into a cottage in Hangman's Row and then there is a murder in the cottage next door to his. When Ivy gets to know Gus they decide to try to find out who the murderer is and together with Deirdre and Roy, who is in his nineties but has a great memory, they set up their own detective agency, Enquire Within. When they start to delve into the past of some of the villagers they get a little too close to the truth and the murderer gets a little upset! Ivy and co. find themselves in danger and they start to wonder what they have actually unearthed in this sleepy village.
A really good story with a good twist.

I liked the characters a lot and will probably read the future books in the series. Really the only problem I had with the book was that it didn't appear the author (or her editor) paid enough attention to detail in her timelines. One of the characters, Roy, an 86 year old (pg 307)fellow resident of Ivy's is recollecting a conversation he overhead between his mother and the dog breeder regarding the disappearance of a local woman about 40 years earlier in the nineteen seventies. (pg 193) The conversation occured when he was home sick from school with the chicken pox?! (pg. 205-206) Was he in school living at home with his mother when he was 46?! Maybe I have totally misread it, but I've gone over it several times so I don't think I did. The characters are a lot fun and very likable. I am interested to see what new adventures await Ivy, Roy, Deirdre, and Gus as they Enquire Within.

The Hangman's Row Enguiry was a sparkling introduction to this new spinoff series from Ms. Purser. The "detectives" are a collections of kindred souls huddled around the proverbial cup of tea, but then they are so much more, too. There's Gus and Ivy, Deidre and Roy who make up the group, and they solve crime in their own round about muddled way. I enjoyed this story, and then rushed off to buy the next two.
I've really enjoyed Ms. Purser's Lois Meade books, and these might prove to be even better. Ms. Purser really captures the English country village with all its internal disquiet and its incestuous overtones. Her work reminds me of the Midsomer Murder series--but lighter, happier...until...the murder. Kudos to Ann Purser for another really great read.

Ann Purser introduces us to new characters. This time a mysterious man who might have been a detective, a lady in a resthome and her cousin who is rich thanks to a deceased husband. The mystery is who killed his neighbor and what does the lord of the manor have to do with it. Also why is he letting his housekeeper keep him a virtual prisoner. Looking forward to more in this new series.

Ivy Beasley has moved to an assisted living apartment near her cousin, Diedre Bloxham. The two team up with a mysterious man named Gus Halfhide to form the Enquire Within Agency. They will attempt to investigate the murder of one of Gus' neighbors, Mrs. Caroline Blake. Gus attempts to charm Caroline's daughter, Miriam, who is the main suspect. Diedre attempts to charm Theo Roussel, the lord of the local manor. Theo is guarded by his assistant, Beatie Beattie, and she is determined that no one will have him but herself. Ivy teams up with another senior citizen, Roy Goodman and they hunt for clues in the past. This is a funny, charming book. No real mystery but a good read.

Gus Halfhide is the talk of the village despite taking the little cottage for some quiet and in order to start over. Then his next door neighbor's murdered and her daughter is the prime suspect. Deciding to put his abilities as an investigator to use, and to have a worthwhile cause for his time, he joins with a couple of new elderly friends. Together they form an amateur detection agency and what they uncover is very interesting and more than a little twisted.
September 11, 2018
This was a fun read. I liked the characters, but some of the coincidences that help them solve the mystery are a bit far fetched. If you can see past that then you'll have a good time. There were a few places where I actually laughed out loud, which is rare for me. I'll read more in the series if I come across them, but won't specifically hunt them out.

Really liked this book. Found Ivy's brusque manner hiding a fragile soul, somewhat endearing. Only read first book in the series that this was spun from, so didn't have background on her. Four stars instead of five because pet peeve is grammar. Ivy says something like, "Roy and me will be in my room. ..". Proper Ivy would never say that.
July 26, 2017
I enjoyed this book in parts, I did like the end. However I feel that really good books you remember, I read this book a couple years ago, and couldn't remember the end, and did not realize I had read it until about 40pgs in.
November 1, 2017
This was a very good start to a new series of cozy mysteries.
You might think a man with a mysterious past, two senior citizens who live in a retirement home and a rich woman with too much time on her hands make a motley crew of problem solvers but, in this case, it works.

This book disappointed me as I had enjoyed the author's previous series. I found it very slow and convoluted with uninteresting characters. I am not sure that I will read anything else in this series.
January 1, 2020
I enjoy English cozies. This was akin to a Miss Marple, but much slower going, really like life in a small English village. I thought it could have moved along a little more faster, too much repetition in what was happening. However, I did enjoy this series.
May 4, 2024
I enjoyed the story and the characters. The book was an easy read and slow paced in a few paces but it seemed to me that you get to know the characters very well as the story continues. Will definitely seek out more from this series.
May 26, 2021
This was a nice book and I will read another in the series. It must have been me, but I got a little muddled with the characters and the genealogy.
July 22, 2021
This was an ok book, not one I am interested in finishing the series though. I think the characters where ok but not like the lois mead series which I adore. Just not for me.
February 11, 2022
Chapters are short, a well written book.
March 14, 2023
My first book by the author. I loved the characters; especially Miss Ivy Beasley. I will certainly read the next book in the series.
October 28, 2023
I read this series out of order, but it was kind of good because I felt that I was reading the history of the character that I knew. Really good.

A bread knife stuck in the heart does not normally come under the category of natural causes.
Recently, British mystery shows on Netflix have become my favorite thing and I was excited to start this book because it sounded exactly like my favorite shows! While I really enjoyed the book as a whole, there were a few things I had a problem with.
Oh, and by the way, All Problems Solved is a terrible name. How about Enquire Within?
I thoroughly enjoyed all the characters; Ivy was feisty, Deirdre was funny, Gus was cunning, and Roy was beyond sweet. All the side characters had their quirks as well and I was always happy while I was reading. This book packs all the classic cozy feels but it's made even cozier by the charming British country side and the small village locale. This book was an absolute joy to read and I was transported to a beautiful British village day where the old ladies take walks through the village square and friends sip tea in fancy country homes.
Since the book series is called the 'Ivy Beasley Mysteries' I had assumed the book would centralize around Ms. Ivy Beasley, but this book was told in the third person omniscient. I don't hate this point of view, in fact I really enjoy it because I'm seeing the story from all sides, but there were a few issues I had with it for this particular book. One, I kind of wished the book series was named 'Enquire Within Mysteries' instead because the book revolved around the whole group, not just Ivy. Second, and this was my biggest pet peev, this point of view made it SO easy for me to figure out who committed the crime that I knew right away and just kept reading to figure out why and because I liked the characters. I'm hoping the next book won't reveal too much too soon the way this one did.
I have kind of a love-hate relationship with the plot, however. When it came to the overall mystery I was confused in both a good and bad way. Good because I really didn't know why Mrs. Blake was murdered and the intricacies behind the mystery; bad because I knew right away who was the culprit. I was hoping the book would shock me at the end by revealing the killer was someone who I hadn't considered, but it was exactly who I thought it would be and that was kind of a let down. What wasn't a let down was the actual mystery behind the mystery, Enquire Within really did uncover a big village secret and I was left guessing right to the end.
The author's writing style was really great and I could always feel the tone of the book and that was something that made this book really enjoyable to read. When I was having a bad day I picked this up and was transported to a different world that was guaranteed to make me feel better, and this was my favorite part because that's what books should do! I'll be reading the next book in the series because I craved this feeling, adored the characters, and was entranced by the conspiracy that unfolded and cannot wait to read more!

"Ivy Beasley may have been moved to assisted living,but she has more interest in assisting her new partners in a amateur-sleuth business. She teams up with Gus, a mysterious newcomer who can't resist a little excitement even as he strives to keep his past secret, and her own cousin, a widow with time on her hands and money in her purse. Together they're determined to solve a local murder ...
"In one of the houses on Hangman's Row, Gus's elderly neighbor has been found with a bread knife sticking out of her chest. Local gossip has it that there was no love lost between the victim and her daughter, but Ivy and her fellow sleuths soon discover no shortage of suspects -- or secrets-- in the small English village of Barrington ..."
~~back cover
Nice little mystery: interesting characters, nice plot, etc. Unfortunately, although I liked it, it wasn't a great read. A little overdramatization of Ivy's character -- curmudgeonlyness goes a long way very fast. I might read others in the series if I came across them at a garage sale, but I'm not going to hunt for them.

This was an interesting premise--a cozy mystery involving senior citizens as amateur sleuths. Unfortunately, one of the main characters, Ivy Beasley herself, was so unlikeable and unpleasant that she took away from my enjoyment of the story. In the blurb, she was described as a "beloved cantankerous spinster". Well, she certainly did not come across that way to me! Instead, I would describe her as extremely bossy, rude, cold, blunt and far too sharp-tongued. I like strong, sassy, intelligent and colourful characters, but Ivy just had too many nasty traits for my liking.
Gus and Deirdre, the other two members of the Enquire Within private investigation agency, were a little more engaging, and it was interesting to catch tantalizing glimpses of Gus's mysterious past and secrets.
The mystery itself was okay but not amazing. I may at some point in the future read another book in this series, but probably not any time soon.

I found myself laughing out loud at some of the scenes and dialog in this excellent debut of a new and charming murder mystery series.
An unlikely crew of persons aged in their 50's to 80's gather together to create, what in their minds and hopes, is a flourishing detective agency. The first case is in a charming British village when a murder occurs, next door to a new-comer, Gus.
We quickly learn Gus is a mystery unto himself as well. Gus meets a spinster, Ivy, also new to the village living in an assisted senior home.
Ivy and Gus soon involve others in their enterprise and off they go to beat the police in solving this murder.
If you enjoy cozies written in British villages, with characters well honed and engaging, then you will adore this series as I do.

The Hangman's Row Enquiry by Ann Purser features crotchety Ivy Beasley, and elderly but shrewdly intelligent inhabitant of an assisted living
residence in a small English village. Her cousin Deirdre and the mysterious Gus Halfhide round out a strange trio of characters who form Enquire Within, a private investigation service.
What I liked: the characters, the inclusion of an often neglected age group, and the incongruous nature of the relationships. The plot was lacking, but maybe the plotting will improve as I move on to the next in the series. The characters, including Roy, who has taken a fancy to Ivy, are enjoyable. A light, fun read.
I read this one after reading Teresa's review over at My Highland Cottage.

Ivy Beasley has moved to an assisted living home in Barrington, England, near her younger cousin Deirdre. A new gentleman has rented a house on Hangman’s Row, but before anyone really gets to know him, his elderly next door neighbor is murdered. Her daughter is a prime suspect, but Gus isn’t convinced. He has a mysterious past in investigation that he hints at and enlists Ivy’s and Deirdre’s help in investigating this crime. This was a cozy English village traditional mystery set up with the busybodies being the main characters. It was very funny at times. I will be looking for more of this series.

A spin-off of another series of Ann Pursers that I like a great deal. This involve the tart, sharp witted (and sharp tongued!) Ivy Beasley who has been settled into a retirement home but won't settle down. Ivy is looking for diversions and finds them in a new resident and a murder to solve. Bringing others into their efforts the group solve the case and form a detective agency at the story's end (thus setting up the series). This will be a very character-driven series with Ivy as the dominate force but plenty of insights and development of the others in the little group. Enjoyable and promising.
