The series is about an Inspector during the Victorian Age of England who employs a house staff who loves solving mysteries. The lead character, Mrs. Jeffries, is the housekeeper who has a keen sense of detective work.
This particular story has quite an interesting twist at the end that I didn't see coming!
This is the third in the series that I've read and each novel is better than the other because I get to know the characters a little more each time. The books are pretty well-paced and well-written, although for U.S. readers, you may have to look up a couple of words that you may not be familiar with. Regardless, all of the books I've read in this series are enjoyable and I recommend "Feast of St. Stephens."
BOOK SUMMARY: A Yuletide dinner in West Brompton should have been a festive occasion, until the host, wealthy Stephen Whitfield, dropped dead before the second course. Now Mrs. Jeffries and the busy sleuths must rally in support of their Inspector?especially since the clues are harder to find than a silver sixpence in a plum pudding.
