Death in the Mayfair Hotel by Fliss Chester
4.0
A lavish hotel, locked room mystery with a ticking countdown to when the suspects can leave! Cressida, Alfred, Dotty and George are celebrating Christmas in 1925. But of course the festivities can't go off without a murder!
Cressida really is a girl ahead of her time - she's got a fledgling career in interior design, she's not marriage minded and she'd rather be with her dog every night! But she is great fun, kind-hearted and a whizz at solving murders. Why Scotland Yard hasn't recruited her by this time is madness!
I love the will they won't they of Cressida and Alfred. Dotty and George have to be the cutest couple ever and Ruby...well she has a bit of a secret herself! Amateur sleuthing 1920's style is glitzy, glamourous and grizzly! There were plenty of twists and red herrings and I can happily claim not to have had a clue who did it till just before the big reveal!
I can't wait to see what happens for Cressida and Co. next.
