A review by vsbedford
Murder in an English Village by Jessica Ellicott

4.0

A lovely start to what, I presume, will be a series of Beryl and Edwina mysteries. The novel starts off a bit rough - the first two chapters didn't grab me at all - but the female friendship and humor at the core of the this book is well worth sticking around for. Look, the mysteries, such as they are, are inscrutable and not explained with a surfeit of clarity but Ms. Ellicott does have a lot of interesting angles with regard to class and female autonomy in the early 20th century. A definite recommend.

I received an ecopy from the publishers and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
