I love Lady Hardcastle and Florence Armstrong! The comic patter between the two just makes the books for me. The historical detail helps me see and understand pre-WWI Great Britain, an era that I don’t know much about. Lady Hardcastle’s facility with science is a good touch as is Armstrong’s ability to do everything else. Check out the archery competition in the first book for sheer fun. My preference is to read series books in order, but whatever you decide, read book one “A Quiet Place in the Country” first.

Another enjoyable outing in this series - you can feel WWI looming here, the Flo and Lady Hardcastle are investigating spies in the aircraft industry. The initial mystery is a bit of a macguffin here but I certainly don't read these for the puzzles but rather for the excellent banter and comic situations. I started this, put it down to read something else and then came back to it when I needed a bit of a comfort book.
