Review
It's well written and researched, touching on a lot of issues of the time * Debbish (blog) * The Mitford Murders is a captivating read. Fellowes, perhaps best known for her Downtown Abbey books, is very good at what she does * Sandy's Book a Day Blog * This is an outstanding first book in a series. Wonderful pacing, characters, and depth * Book Lover's Book Reviews (blog) * Everything in one book. Crime, mystery, romance, humour, gritty reality, fact, fiction and so much more. This book is special, and I can guarantee I'll be looking out for the next one. A 'Must read' highly recommended by me. * Starts At 60 (blog) * Read it if you like Europe of mid-twenties and want to get immersed in the post-war goings on. * Snow Queen SVT (blog) * It is impossible to not like this book . . . a light and entertaining read best saved for when it gets cold outside and you need something to cosy up with. * Crime Fiction Lover * It's the perfect cosy crime read; an escapist, Sunday-night period drama wrapped up in a book. The start of a series that doesn't disappoint, and one I suspect the Mitford sisters would have approved of. * Image Magazine * Remarkably assured and with pitch-perfect period detail * Country Life * Perfect for those missing their Downton Abbey fix. * Belfast Telegraph * The premise is clever . . . a zippy read for those interested in the 1920s. * The Lady * Downton Abbey fans, rejoice. For those who miss Lady Mary and Bates, the Mitford series is a winner. * Globe & Mail * A locked room mystery . . . I enjoyed this cosy crime caper. * Red * What a captivating crime novel and heroine Jessica has created in The Mitford Murders. The instant reassurance of being in the hands of a true storyteller with a feel for period detail makes this a real treat. * Amanda Craig * Jessica Fellowes' deliciously immersive, effortlessly easy novel has a strong feel for period and a rollicking plot. * Metro * Full of period pleasure. * Woman & Home * Elegant, whipsmart and brilliantly twisty-turny, this Downton-style mystery had me hooked from the first page * Viv Groskop * The plan is that each book will focus on a different Mitford sister. On the strength of this initial entry, success is assured. * Financial Times * This story is drenched in detail and feels both authentic and fun. Curl up in your favourite reading spot and enjoy. * Heat * Keeps the reader guessing to the very end. An accomplished crime debut and huge fun to read. * Evening Standard * All the blissful escapism of a Sunday-night period drama in a book. * The Pool * True and glorious indulgence. A dazzling example of a golden age mystery. * Daisy Goodwin * An extraordinary meld of fact and fiction * Graham Norton * Exactly the sort of book you might enjoy with the fire blazing, the snow falling etc. The solution is neat and the writing always enjoyable. (Best Crime Books of 2017) * Anthony Horowitz * A lively, well-written, entertaining whodunit * The Times (Crime Fiction Book of the Month) *
