Set in 1923, a finding of a body in a cave sends everything in a tail spin. With one war ended and another one building, England is full of intrigue. Liked this one overall, and would recommend, although did end up skimming a bit.

This was my first book in this series and I was just a bit confused as the time period didn't "click" in my mind. When something was described as happening in 1918, I thought "a long time ago" -however it was only 5 years ago in the book. (My fault, I suppose.)
The mystery was entertaining and the end was a bit of a surprise. It wasn't as "exciting" and "dangerous" as the usual murder mysteries that I read, but it held my attention right up until the end.

I’m increasingly enjoying this series, which continues to get better and better. This one was particularly enjoyable thanks to being set in Devon, where I live - I know Teignmouth and Exeter well, and enjoyed looking up the streets mentioned, and knowing where they were so I could picture it. Aside from that, this had a good plot - intricate enough to be interesting, but not overwhelming, and a good mystery. All in all, a very good read!
