The Spring Cleaning Murders
by Dorothy Cannell

Award-winning author Dorothy Cannell serves up a delectable English cozy murder mystery . . . to die for.

Ellie Haskell catches spring cleaning fever when several members of the Chitterton Fells Charwomen’s Association meet decidedly grisly ends . . .

Dear old Mrs Malloy, faithful housekeeper for many a year, has only gone and handed in her notice. After much despairing, Ellie employs Mrs Gertrude Large to keep her busy household running smoothly.

But a few hours later Mrs Large falls to her death from a ladder. Ellie quickly finds a replacement, only for her to also suffer a fatal fall — this time in the library.

These deaths can’t be a coincidence. One dead housekeeper is a misfortune, but two must be murder.

Then a third body is found. This time stabbed to death — it was no accident.

Ellie must don her best marigolds and go undercover to catch a killer who’s playing very dirty . . .

An utterly charming English cozy murder mystery, perfect for fans of M.C. Beaton, Rhys Bowen, Steve Higgs and Richard Osman.

Genre: Historical Crime & Mystery
