Quick read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mrs Jeffries And The Missing Alibi (Paperback)
Very typical of the Mrs. Jeffries' books. This is a very fast read, very enjoyable. The solution was not a total surprise, but that's not really the point of these mysteries. The characters are well-drawn and fun to be with again.

Could Inspector Witherspoon Commit Murder?,
By L Smith "acozylover" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mrs Jeffries And The Missing Alibi (Paperback)
In the 8th book in the Inspector and Mrs. Jeffries series, the staff at Upper Edmonton Gardens has new motivation to help the Inspector solve another case. In this Victorian mystery, Inspector Witherspoon of Scotland Yard is being framed...that is, someone is impersonating the Inspector, and a murder takes place! Since Inspector Witherspoon has a weak alibi for the time of the murder, he is taken off the case and his staff immediately jumps in to prove his innocence. Will they be able to prove that the Inspector did not commit the murder? This book is like the previous books in the series in that the strength of the books comes mainly from the characters. I enjoy the growing relationships between the members of Inspector Witherspoon's staff and like seeing how they will avoid having the Inspector figure out that they are helping him. This case is a bit different because of the fact that the staff needs the Inspector's help, and I enjoyed his reaction when he sees how much his staff can do for him. The mystery was a bit easier to solve than some of the others, but it was still a quick, delightful read. The first book in this series is "The Inspector and Mrs. Jeffries". Enjoy! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:

Another Upper Edmonton Gardens romp.,
By S. Schwartz "romonko" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mrs Jeffries And The Missing Alibi (Paperback)
This latest in the Mrs. Jeffies series is another romp with the staff from Upper Edmonton Gardens. The book is light and fun, and the characters are still just as likeable. In this book though, their beloved Inspector Witherspoon is a suspect in a murder case. It's up to the staff to clear his name. And even though she knows he didn't commmit this terrible crime, Mrs. Jeffries knows that Inspector Witherspoon is keeping something from her. Lots of good, clean fun.
