Dorothy Martin
review 1: Expat Dorothy Martin and her husband, retired Chief Constable Alan Nesbitt, are invited to a country house for the Guy Fawkes weekend. Dorothy and the other guests are stranded by a slightly unbelievable storm, setting them up for a classic British country house mystery. A body is found among the roots of a fallen oak tree, a guest is murdered and another disappears. Isolated and unable to communicate with the outside world Dorothy and Alan must investigate.
review 2: I'll admit that this series may only appeal to hardcore cozy mystery fans, but there is something very addictive about the warm hearted, slightly blundering American woman of a certain age who has chosen to live in her beloved England as somewhat of a fish out of water. Over the course of the ser
... moreies, she conveniently marries a retired police inspector, which gives her access to even more murders and procedural plots. They complement each other very well. This is one of the best of the series, as Dams has all the well worn, but still fun, elements of the classic British house mystery - a castle, a devastating storm that isolates the house and its guests, a cast of eccentric characters, skeletons, fresh bodies, and so on! Fun! less

I figured out who did it a little too easily. But I liked the characters and the setting.
