I have a question can Elizabeth George's Inspector Lynley be considered a cozy? Some tell me yes while others tell me no. Can anyone give an answer please!
I've never read Elizabeth George's books, but going by the Cozy-Mystery website, they aren't considered cozy because it has graphic content and cozies don't have that.
Another reason is that cozys are amature sleuths and Inspector, well, it is his job. I just finished Payment in Blood which is very good, I didn't think it was too graphic and there were a few red herrings, so I didn't know who the murderer was until close to the end. I will be reading Elizabeth George's books, I like her characters and the plots seem realistic enough.
