What readers say
A 1920s English series following Daisy, an aristocrat who works for her living as a writer, and readers love its Golden Age feel, country-house settings, clean content, fair clues and the developing romance with Detective Chief Inspector Alec Fletcher. The audiobooks are frequently praised. Common criticisms are heavy period slang that some find overdone, large casts, thin side characters and endings where justice feels too soft for some readers. Recent reviews are mostly positive.
Best for: Readers who want clean, charming 1920s mysteries with a slow-burn romance.
