Murder in an English Village by Jessica Ellicott
5.0
I won this in a Goodreads giveaway and am very happy I did! This is a very well written cozy mystery set in the 1920's, providing a compelling look into the life of people in Britain while recovering from the first world war.
There are a number of characters major and minor, yet all are well explored. You get to know the two heroines the most, of course, and they are fascinating and entertaining. It is refreshing as well to have the main characters a bit older than usual.
The mystery itself is fast paced, with lots of twists and turns, and keeps you guessing right to the end.
If you like cozy mysteries, especially those set in the 20's such as those by Lee Strauss or Leighann Dobbs, I highly recommend this book. I hope to see more of these characters and the book certainly seems to be setting up a series.
