Synopsis

She keeps house for Inspector Witherspoon . . . and keeps him on his toes. Everyone's awed by his Scotland Yard successes—but they don't know about his secret weapon. No matter how messy the murder or how dirty the deed, Mrs. Jeffries's polished detection skills are up to the task . . . proving that behind every great man there's a woman—and that a crimesolver's work is never done.

Sir Edmund Leggett is flattered to be stalked by a young lady—who makes herself scarce after he's murdered in cold blood. The police hold the young woman to blame. But Inspector Witherspoon has other ideas and consults his housekeeper, Mrs. Jeffries—who always gets to the heart of the matter.

Goodreads review by Cheryl on December 16, 2013

Nothing like Mrs. Jeffries and associates to while away a sleepy Sunday afternoon. As always, a decent mystery with a likable cast. I had a little more difficult time figuring out the "whys" that led to the solution, although I did get the hint that the individual would turn out to be the killer.......more

Goodreads review by Maverick on October 20, 2016

I'm a huge fan of cozy mysteries and I've found Mrs.Jeffries is at the top of the list.
