So Much Mystery Fun

Jane da Silva is such a super gal. This, the first in the series sets her attitudes and why she has become a "pro bono" sleuth. She is a Seattlite that escaped to South America and Europe before finally coming home to Uncle Harold's trust fund. These stories are human, and you come to like Jane and all the interesting people she runs into.I was sad to see all her books are not quickly available. They are worth the time to find!
