Lord James Harrington and the Spring Mystery

By Lynn Florkiewicz

Meet Lord James Harrington and his delightful wife, Beth; residents of the tiny village of Cavendish, deep in the heart of West Sussex in England. They adore hosting seasonal events, running their country hotel, keeping the local folklore alive and listening to the latest murder mystery on the wireless. But mysteries don't always remain on the airwaves...It's 1958 and James and Beth are hosting the annual spring fair where wealthy recluse, Delphine Brooks-Hunter, is murdered. James is summoned to the reading of her will and is tasked with solving an intriguing riddle. Meanwhile, Beth tackles her own mystery after discovering a homeless man suffering from amnesia.As they delve deeper, a number of questions emerge. What links Delphine to the fairground folk? Who would harm such a refined lady? Are rumours of World War espionage true? Is the homeless man everything he purports to be? Will James solve the mystery set before him? Will Beth discover the identity of the homeless man?They go about unravelling the truth but uncover far more than they ever bargained for.Author's note: The first four cosy novels (Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn) were offered at a low price on Kindle as I was learning my trade and I couldn't afford an editor at the time. However, a few years down the line, I'm aware there were some shortcomings in my writing and I believe the constructive 1* reviews commented on that. I am in the process of re-editing these first four books. I now use a professional editor and mainstream author to edit all of my work. This edition of the Spring Mystery is an updated version using the services of that editor and author. All negative reviews on Kindle regarding editing or repetition dated prior to 18 April 2017 will not, therefore, be accurate. Please bear that in mind when purchasing. I do hope that you will enjoy being a part of the Cavendish community. Happy reading.

This is a wonderful series!

I have read the first six books in this series, and have found all of them delightful. These are classic "cozy mysteries" set in the English Countryside. They are peopled with charming characters and lovely descriptions of the countryside. Do not expect blood and gore! The stories are quite good, but mostly these are books filled with people you would like to know and spend time with. If you like cozy English mysteries, you will not be disappointed.
