Fans of Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers will enjoy this very traditional British cozy Booklist

Wondering what led to the unfortunate girl's demise, Dorothy can't help but get involved in the case when Jonathan calls the next day and admits he knew who the victim was . . .

About the Author
Jeanne M. Dams, an American, is a devout Anglophile who has wished she could live in England ever since her first visit in 1963. Fortunately, her alter ego, Dorothy Martin, can do just that. Jeanne lives in South Bend, Indiana, with a varying population of cats.
From Booklist
Dorothy Martin, the American-born schoolteacher and amateur sleuth who makes her home in England, returns in this new entry in a popular series. On a visit to Buckingham Palace, Dorothy and her husband, Alan, a retired chief constable, discover a dead body in a private section of St. James’s Park. As it turns out, Dorothy and Alan’s friend, a former chief inspector, knew the victim, and the friend asks Dorothy if she could, discreetly, try to find out what happened to the victim. Fans of British cozies will enjoy this one very much (although readers who prefer more action might find it a bit lethargic. Martin isn’t quite as engaging a character as Hilda Johansson, heroine of Dams’ other series, and the contemporary setting isn’t quite as compelling as Hilda’s early-1900s environment, but Martin’s fans—of all her work—should be pleased. --David Pitt
