Great! Thanks Barbara. I only knew of him as a game show host (dictionary corner) but he seems to have written quite a lot!
ONGOING NOMINATIONS:
The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman seconded
The Last Detective by Peter Lovesey

The Last Detective by Peter Lovesey

Who else would like to nominate an English Mystery book please? I'm going to add a recent "near miss" The Last Detective by Peter Lovesey as my choice :)

The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax (Mrs. Pollifax #1), by Dorothy Gilman
This is a terrific series about an unexpected heroine.
Aw what a shame. It does sound good, but I'm afraid it's not an English Mystery, Meg. Sorry :(
Maybe you could talk about it in our US authors' thread though?

Let's have another nomination please, and then I can set up a poll soon. Any English mystery from about 1960 onwards, please :)

It looks interesting!

Ironside is the pseudonym of Lady Catherine Manning, wife of the former British Ambassador to the U.S., Sir David Manning. It was written in 1994 and the first of her five books.
Aw ... but you can see I posted this thread on 1st, and have put several reminders ... never mind Michaela, you can nominate for March's read - and February's golden age one too :)
(I'm all agog to know what it is!)
