Critics Review
Praise for Colleen Cambridge
“Cambridge pens a thoroughly intriguing mystery, told in a unique manner from the perspective of the staff belowstairs rather than the upper class above, in this splendid first installment in a new series. Her heroine, Phyllida Bright, is the confident, shrewd, and eminently capable housekeeper for none other than the grand dame of mystery herself–Agatha Christie–and a great admirer of Christie’s fictional detective Poirot, whose methods she seeks to emulate. Fans of Tessa Arlen and Jennifer Ashley will be delighted.”
–Anna Lee Huber, bestselling author of the Verity Kent Mysteries
Marple and Poirot have nothing on Agatha Christie’s housekeeper, Phyllida Bright. Details and diligence being the tools of her trade, Phyllida puts them to good use whether she’s arranging a country house party for her employers, or determining which of the guests is a crazed killer. You’ll love this new Christie-inspired series!
–Alyssa Maxwell, author of A Lady & Lady’s Maid Mysteries and The Gilded Newport Mysteries
“What if Agatha Christie’s housekeeper was the best detective of all? In this delightful book, she is! You will love watching Phyllida spot the clues the authorities miss when a dead body shows up in Agatha’s library. An outstanding start to what promises to be a winning new series.” –Victoria Thompson, USA Today bestselling author of Murder on Wall Street
“Agatha Christie’s indomitable and mysterious housekeeper Phyllida Bright takes on a killer in this exciting new series from Colleen Cambridge. Fans of historical mysteries–and Christie herself–will love this well-imagined homage, and the clever twists and numerous suspects will keep readers on their toes. I’m already looking forward to Phyllida’s next adventure!” –Erica Ruth Neubauer, author of the Jane Wunderly mystery series
