This charming series of Victorian murder mysteries features
mild-mannered Inspector Witherspoon of Scotland Yard and, more
importantly, Mrs Jeffries, his housekeeper. A policeman's widow
herself, her quick wits allow her to nudge the Inspector in the
right direction to solve the crime. A priceless brooch and a
parlour maid go missing at the same time, and Inspector Witherspoon
is called in to investigate. He finds the brooch, on a corpse, but
draws a blank on the missing girl. Her employer, Luty Belle
Crookshank, has more faith in Mrs Jeffries than the police, and
rightly so... "...the body was only found today." Witherspoon
paused and took a deep breath. "And the murder was committed
several months ago." "Several months ago!" Mrs Jeffries was
scandalized. The trail would be colder than a February frost.'
