This was the first in a wonderful historical fiction mystery series. I adore all the author's books. But I think this particular series is my favorite, set back before World War II, when Queen Elizabeth was a little girl. The main character is an accidental sleuth, and very funny! There is even a little romance thrown in. With a mysterious handsome Irishman. A light, irresistable, fun series!
