Death of a Cozy Writer

This is a great murder mystery send-up of the British "cozy" mystery -- Colonel Mustard in the drawing room with a knife -- smart and tight. Sir Adrian Beauclerk-Fisk creates a family fraught with hate, indifference, jealousy and addiction. But in the end, he meets his own demise, leaving greedy heirs, a new (murderess?) wife, and skulking servants. Detective Chief Inspector Arthur St. Just is left to sniff out the clues. Fun!

  1. That sounds pretty cool. I'm out of good reads, so I may see if I can track it down.
