Spruced Up For Murder
Death at Francis Court Now Confirmed as Murder! Speculation is rife that the victim, estate manager Alex Sterling (44), was found by Lady Beatrice (35), the Countess of Rossex, niece of King James. Lady Beatrice, who has finally come out of hiding following her son’s departure to boarding school, has been managing the project to refurbish and redesign the Events Suite at Francis Court, alongside Perry Juke. Heading up the murder investigation is Detective Chief Inspector Richard Fitzwilliam. Rumour has it that he and Lady Beatrice have a fractious history…
Awful man! How dare Fitzwilliam suggest Lady Beatrice’s sister is the number one suspect for Alex’s murder. It could be any one of the staff who were on-site that morning. Well, she’ll show Mr High and Mighty Fitzwilliam! With her attention to detail, her clever dog Daisy, Perry’s imagination, and his partner’s contacts at Fenshire CID, they’ll find the murderer before him. And then they’ll see who’ll look like a fool. Because it won’t be Lady Beatrice, will it?

Is the Wedding Between TV’s Sir Hewitt Willoughby-Franklin’s Step-Daughter and Billionaire’s Son Off? Rumours are that the recent death of Kelley Lindsell (29), the personal chef of tycoon Rudy (68) and Sheri Trotman (65) at Sir Hewitt’s Fawstead Manor country estate in Fenshire, has spooked Sybil Bransgrove (36) so badly she’s considering cancelling her nuptials. Meanwhile the bride and her mother Lady Grace (61) are being supported by family friend Lady Beatrice (36), the Countess of Rossex, who, alongside her business partner Perry Juke, is currently managing the project to refurbish the Manor House and Lodge on the estate.
Not again! Now that Lady Grace has asked amateur sleuth Lady Beatrice to liaise with the police during the investigation into Kelley’s death, she’ll have to cooperate with boorish Detective Chief Inspector Richard Fitzwilliam whether she likes it or not. Her only relief will be solving the murder with the help of her friends Perry and Simon and her dog Daisy to get rid of him faster. But with so many wedding party guests staying on-site, any one of them could be the killer. Can they find out who it is before Sybil calls off the wedding…

But with so many people having access to the food preparation area at the show how will she find out who did murder Luca before Fitzwilliam lets his personal dislike get the better of him and arrests Seb?

These are wonderful classic whodunits with great characters. Lady Beatrice, Daisy the dog and her friends keep stumbling over dead bodies in the first three books of what is already a must read series for me. Great characters, entertaining stories and a cute little dog who could resist. Well written classic whodunits with a touch of humour and romance. Great stuff. I bought these as individuals and then grabbed this set on sale.

This is a whodunit with a very royal cast! The kind distractions out to be running a blog that has too much inside information for her daughter’s liking. Fourteen years after her husband’s death she takes up an impromptu invitation at her business partners home. Add in a police inspector she cannot stand and you have a very successful investigation team!

I recently read “Tick, Tock, Mystery Clock” My first by this author and then I just picked up this box set within minutes, the writing and plot was that good. It’s hard to put a different spin on Cosy Mystery’s, there are so many of them. This author has done just that. For health reasons I some times spend day’s if not weeks unable to even move, so I get the Echo to read to me. You would be terrified at just how many books can be read in that time. Hence I have read an unbelievable amount of Cosy Mysteries and this lady will soon be amongst the most sort after. Yes she has a Team & Yes there is the expected Policeman, (who has my vote) But that is where she branches off giving that little extra that will have you looking out for her work. If you have not yet read “Tick, Tock, Mystery Clock” go to “Bookfunnel” It’s a short story, but once having read it you will be just as eager to read this Cosy Mystery Series as I was.

I enjoyed these books, having read them when they came out individually and I would have loved to have had a chance to read them back to back as you could in a boxset, so I can only say, go for it if you have not started this series as yet. I am sure you deserve a treat and by Jove, they are a real treat! 5 starts for sure, thumbs up!

Spruced up for murder review
Lady Beatrice/ Bea of Rossex the King’s niece and reclusive widow since her husband’s death in an automobile accident with another woman fourteen years ago after being hounded by the press. Her sister Lady Sarah has found something to coax her from hiding , an interior design project for Francis Court. Lady Sarah’s assistant Perry Juke is charged with helping Lady Bea and they’re becoming fast friends along with his partner , crime writer Simon Lattimore. When the bumbling oaf of a Detective Chief Inspector Richard Fitzwilliam is back on the scene ( he was on the team investigating Lady Bea’s husband’s death) and investigating a new murder, he doesn’t take too kindly to amateur sleuthing trio , Lady Bea, Perry and Simon stepping on his toes in their endeavour to be the first ones to solve the crime . A great start to a brilliant series and sets the tone nicely for the next books . Love the concept, the characters are larger than life but at the same time relatable and fun and its entertainment value is off the charts!
For Richer For Deader:-
Lady Bea is called upon to liaise with the police over Kelley Lindsell the chef’s murder, by Lady Grace and the bride to be her daughter Sybil Bransgrove , much to the chagrin of grumpy Detective Chief Inspector Fitzwilliam. She has her now business partner Perry and his partner in tow to help along with Daisy the dog. Every amateur sleuth worth her salt has a sidekick after all… Can they solve the case before the wedding is called off ? Great ! Loved this as much as the first in series Spruced up for Murder. Looking forward to book 3 as in my library already . Good flow and familiar characters to immerse yourself with while accompanying them in their endeavours. Solid descriptions and plotting
Not Mushroom For Death:-
Wonderful cosy Mystery series with brilliant , refreshing , relatable characters, very immersive story and compelling reading . Great writing , perfect plots and backgrounds with accompanying relish in the delivery of descriptions.
I read a free copy of the books and my review is both voluntary and my own words
