I remember liking them, but don't know if I will still have the same opinion nowadays. I have a few of them to read, but keep putting them off. I want to read She Shall Have Murder first, after that I may not worry about order. <br /><br />Very nice images on this one.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-10911707530940635942015-05-16T10:03:11.584+01:002015-05-16T10:03:11.584+01:00Yes, if Col and I both enjoyed them, they're p...Yes, if Col and I both enjoyed them, they're probably right for you!Clothes In Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680610242823846662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-7814346117234820862015-05-16T10:02:50.240+01:002015-05-16T10:02:50.240+01:00I think I will definitely carry on reading this se...I think I will definitely carry on reading this series.

I think I would get tired of the chauvinism, too, but the mystery sounds fun and light. And yes, where would we be without the requisite group of suspects, each with a motive? That can get irritating, but it's such a feature of some of those series from the era.

This one was particularly blatant for that - one of those final scenes where each person in turn is accused of something. But then the sleuths say 'but not guilty of MURDER' and move to the next one.

I did feel that the couple came across as very English in my book, and I was kind of surprised to find out Ames was an American. I suppose he could have spent a lot of time over here? col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.com
