Mrs. Jeffries Takes the Cake (A Victorian Mystery #13)

Meet the inspector and Mrs. Jeffries—in a delightful mystery series set in Victorian England—and featuring the most charming characters ever to crack a case.

The evidence was all there: a dead body, two dessert plates, and a gun. Could it be that Mr. Ashbury was sharing his cake with his killer? The old bloke had enemies galore - even his oown daughter disliked him. Mr. Ashbury's son-in-law doesn't want Inspector Witherspoon asking questions. Of course this doesn't stop Mrs. Jeffries and her staff snooping around.
