I love the Aunt Dimity series. All the books are cozy mysteries, but one thing I appreciate about these books is that the mysteries tend to be historical or archeological mysteries rather than murder mysteries. If you read this one you’ll find yourself in a gothic castle in northern England, where romance, ghosts, and WWI history collide, with a mystery about long lost love letters.
