Murder at the Village Fair (Miss Underhay #13) by Helena Dixon

 Another fun installment in this cozy mystery series.


Having read all the previous books, I can't imagine trying to read this out of order so do begin at the beginning so that you can fully appreciate the many different situations that Kitty Underhay - now Mrs. Matthew Bryant - has faced. 


It is summer, 1935, and the newly married couple is visiting Matt's aunt in Yorkshire. A village fair is underway when the festivities are interrupted by murder. The dead woman was not very popular in the community, so there are many suspects. Matt and Kitty are asked to investigate to protect the reputation of one of the local citizens. 


I enjoy the period details of this Golden Age murder mystery series and the writing style. The characters have become like old friends who are always great to visit. Easy to read and fun to guess who is guilty with no shortage of motives, means, and opportunity. 


Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for this e-book ARC to read, review, and recommend.


This is the 13th in a series that should be read in order. 


Genre - Golden Age cozy historical mystery
