This is the 6th book in the Brighton Mysteries. It takes place in 1965 and gives a good peek at the UK in the 60's. Emma Holmes has started her new Detective Agency and Sam Collins is her partner. Bert Billington, theatre impresario has been poisoned and his wife, Verity, is a suspect. She hires Emma's agency and secrets from the old music hall days abound.
EadieB It's the era of The Women's Right Movement and women are not allowed to drive police cars. At times, Emma's child care falls through and that poses some problems. Griffith's writing is excellent and the characters are very interesting. It is a bit gruesome in parts for a cozy mystery. 3y
EadieB I enjoyed the surprise twist in the end and didn't guess the murderer. I'm now looking forward to the next book in the series. I would like to thank NetGalley and Mariner Books for a free copy for an honest review. (edited) 3y
